Question

Two lens- one thick and one thin- are available to build a microscope. Propose which one should be used for the eyepiece and which one for the objective lens.

Answer 1

Answer:

A compound microscope uses multiple lenses to magnify an image for an observer. It is made of two convex lenses: the first, the ocular lens, is close to the eye; the second is the objective lens. Compound microscopes are much larger, heavier and more expensive than simple microscopes because of the multiple lenses.
