Given below are two statements : one is labeled as Assertion A and the other is labeled as Reason R . Assertion A : For a simple microscope, the angular size of the object equals the angular size of the image. Reason R : Magnification is achieved as the small object can be kept much closer to the eye than 25 cm and hence it subtends a large angle. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answ
Options
- AA is false but R is true
- BBoth A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
- CA is true but R is false
- DBoth A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
Correct answer
D. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
Step-by-step solution
θ ' = h u 0 ;   θ ' is same for both object and image m = θ ' θ = D μ 0 u 0 < D Hence m > 1
