A scientist is observing a bacteria through a compound microscope. For better analysis and to improve its resolving power he should. (Select the best option)

Multiple Choice Options

  • A Decrease the focal length of the eye piece.
  • B Increase the wave length of the light
  • C Increase the refractive index of the medium between the object and objective lens
  • D Decrease the diameter of the objective lens

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Resolving power of microscope =(2nsin⁡θλ)

nsin⁡θ = Numerical aperture

n is the refractive index of medium.
