STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Magnifying Power = 1+Least Distance of Distinct Vision/Focal Length of Convex Lens
M = 1+D/Fconvex lens
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Magnifying Power - Magnifying Power or the extent to which the object being viewed appears enlarged is related by the geometry of the optical system.
Least Distance of Distinct Vision - (Measured in Meter) - The Least Distance of Distinct Vision (LDDV) is the closest someone with "normal" vision (20/20 vision) can comfortably look at something.
Focal Length of Convex Lens - (Measured in Meter) - Focal Length of Convex Lens is a measure of how strongly the lens diverges or converge the light.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Least Distance of Distinct Vision: 25 Centimeter --> 0.25 Meter (Check conversion here)
Focal Length of Convex Lens: 6.25 Centimeter --> 0.0625 Meter (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
M = 1+D/Fconvex lens --> 1+0.25/0.0625
Evaluating ... ...
M = 5
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
5 --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
5 <-- Magnifying Power

Explain working of a simple microscope.

As we know that simple microscope is used to get a magnified view of the samples, it is widely used in microbiology. Light from the light source is made to pass through a thin object which is transparent. To get an enlarged virtual image, a biconvex lens is used. For higher magnification and resolution, the lens must be close to the sample. By viewing the details of the sample contrast can be obtained. This is done by staining the sample. To obtain a contrast image, the size and intensity of the light beam can be modified with the help of the condenser or the diaphragm. Its formula is M = 1+ D/f where D is the least distance of the distinct vision.
F is the focal length of the convex lens.
