Question
Chapter 2.3, Problem 1TQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
The angle θ that might result in magnification greater than 100X from a single lens and the practical problems that might come in designing such a lens.
Introduction:
Single lens microscopes rely on a single bending of refracted light and one-time magnification. An increase in the angle of aperture will increase the intensity of the light cone produced, will enhance the size of the image and ultimately the resolution. However, there are limits to which this angle of aperture could be increased.

Students have asked these similar questions
Suppose you measure the scanning (4x) field of vision diameter with a stage micrometer and it is 2 mm. If high power is 40X, and gives 10X more magnification than scanning power, how big will the diameter of the field of vision be using high power?
How can you improve contrast when viewing a specimen?. What should you do if you have difficulty focusing in high power?. Why is important to use the fine adjustment nob only when focusing while using the high dry objective lens?
What are the two sets of magnifying lenses called, and how do these relate to total magnification?
