Difference between resolving power and magnifying power of a lens?

Answer 1

I am a Rwandan 'A' Level PCM Student

The magnifying power of a lens is the ratio of the angle subtended by the image by using instruments to the angle subtended by the object at unaided eye while the resolving power is how a lens can make a clear vision of image separately

Answer 2

Resolving power is how clear or sharp little. It is the ability to produce images sharp enough to distinguish two faraway objects that appear to be side-by-side.

Magnifying power is how big you can get an image. More Magnification more will be the light spreads out from the image and as a result distortion will increases. So by increasing the Magnification, resolution will be poor and image will be dimmer and less information will be gain.

Answer 3

Magnification refers to the number of times an original object can be made big. On the other hand, resolving power is the distance or clarity with which different structures can be distinguished from each other.
