Question

Does magnifying power of compound microscope depends on wavelength of incident light

Answer 1

magnifying power of a compound microscope is given by, $M=-\frac{L}{f_0}\left(1+\frac{D}{f_e}\right)$

where L = length of telescope.

$f_0$ = focal length of objective lens

$f_e$ = focal length of eye lens.

here it is clearly shown that magnifying power is independent from wavelength of incident light.
