Problem

A compound microscope has an objective of focal length 0.5 cm0.5\,\text{cm} and an eyepiece of focal length 2.5 cm2.5\,\text{cm}. The distance between the objective focal plane and the eyepiece is 16 cm16\,\text{cm}. For a relaxed eye (final image at infinity), the magnifying power of the microscope is closest to a) M=160M = 160 b) M=32M = 32 c) M=320M = 320 d) M=352M = 352
