Answer

a) $900\times$ b) $1.8\;\rm cm, \;0.3003\;cm$ c) $0.350\dot3\;\rm cm$

Work Step by Step

a) We know that the total magnification is given by $$M=M_o(M_e+1)$$ since we know that the magnification of the eyepiece is increased by one. Plugging the known; $$M=60(14+1)=\color{red}{\bf 900 }\times$$ ------------------------------------ b) Thus, the focal length of the eyepiece is given by $$M_e=\dfrac{N}{f_e}$$ So, $$f_e=\dfrac{N}{M_e}=\dfrac{25}{14}=\color{red}{\bf1.8}\;\rm cm$$ To find the focal length of the other lens, we need to find the object's position $d_{o2}$; $$\dfrac{1}{f_e}=\dfrac{1}{d_{o2}}+\dfrac{1}{d_{i2}} $$ $$d_{o2}=\left[ \dfrac{1}{f_e}- \dfrac{1}{d_{i2}}\right]^{-1}$$ Plugging the known; $$d_{o2}=\left[ \dfrac{1}{1.8}- \dfrac{1}{-25}\right]^{-1}=\bf 1.68\;\rm cm$$ Therefore, the first image is given by $$d_{i1}=l-d_{o2}$$ where $l$ is the distance between the two lenses. $$d_{i1}=20-1.68=\bf 18.32\;\rm cm$$ We also know that the image magnification is given by $$m=\dfrac{d_{i1}}{d_{o1}}$$ Thus, $$d_{o1}=\dfrac{d_{i1}}{m}=\dfrac{18.32}{60}=\color{red}{\bf\bf0.305\dot 3}\;\rm cm\tag{Part c}$$ Therefore, the focal length of the objective lens is given by $$\dfrac{1}{f_o}=\dfrac{1}{d_{o1}}+\dfrac{1}{d_{i1}} $$ $$ f_o =\left[\dfrac{1}{d_{o1}}+\dfrac{1}{d_{i1}} \right]^{-1}$$ Plugging the known; $$ f_o =\left[\dfrac{1}{0.305\dot 3}+\dfrac{1}{18.32 } \right]^{-1}=\color{red}{\bf0.3003}\;\rm cm$$
