What is the magnification of the eyepiece on a microscope?
To determine the magnification of the eyepiece on a microscope take the total magnification for the microscope and divide it by the total magnification of the objective lens. The answer is what the magnification is for the eyepiece.
What is the total magnification if you view an object using a 40x objective lens and the eyepiece of the microscope is at 5x magnifying power?
The total magnification would be 200x, since the total magnification is the magnification of the objective lens X the magnification of the eyepiece.
The objective lens on microscope?
Used in conjunction with the eyepiece lens, the objective lens is what gives an optical microscope its ability to produce magnified images. There are normally three to four objective lenses on microscopes, ranging from 4X to 100X magnification, where the stronger lenses are larger. When coupled with the eyepiece lens, the magnification of a microscope ranges from 40X-1000X, though special conditions are required to achieve a sharp image at 1000X magnification.
What is the function of the eyepiece of a microscope?
The function of the eyepiece is to allow us to observe the specimen in a microscope. It multiplies and adjusts the magnification of the objective lenses. Sometimes, it even corrects aberrations of the objective lens.
Is the objective lens in a microscope also called a eyepiece?
No, the eyepiece and objective lens are at opposite ends of the microscope.
What is the magnification of the eyepiece on a microscope?
To determine the magnification of the eyepiece on a microscope take the total magnification for the microscope and divide it by the total magnification of the objective lens. The answer is what the magnification is for the eyepiece.
What is the total magnification of a microscope when the eyepiece lens by the magnification of the the high objective lens?
multiply the magnification of the eyepiece by the magnification of the high objective lens. for example, if the eyepiece magnifies x10, and the high objective magnifies x40, then the total magnification would be 400x
How do you calculate magnification of a microscope?
Multiply the magnification of the eyepiece - by the magnification of the object lens. For example - if the eyepiece is labeled 10x, and the object lense is 12x... then the total magnification is 120x
What is the total magnification if you view an object using a 40x objective lens and the eyepiece of the microscope is at 5x magnifying power?
The total magnification would be 200x, since the total magnification is the magnification of the objective lens X the magnification of the eyepiece.
What is the magnification of microscope if an eyepiece is marked 5x and an objective lens 10x?
10 x 5 = 50 the magnification of microscope is 50
What is the total magnification of the microscope when it is on high power?
Microscopes vary in power. You can determine total magnification by the eyepiece and the lens.
How do you find the total magnifying power of microscope?
magnification of the eyepiece X magnification of the lens (depends on which one you choose)
What is the total magnification of a compound microscope?
The ocular lens are 10x magnification. Objective lens are 4x, 10x, 40x, 100x magnification. So once an objective lens is selected, the total magnification would be given by its product with the 10x magnification of the ocular lens. For example, if objective lens selected is 40x, total magnification would be: (10x)(40x)=400x total.
If a microscope had a power of magnification of 200x what would the power of the objective lens be if the eyepiece lens is 10x?
20x objective
What is the total magnification of a microscope with two lenses when one lens has a magnification 15 and the other lens has a magnification 30?
15 * 30 = 450 ------------
How do you find the total magnifying power of a microscope?
MP=(d/L)*(1-(L-l)f) where d would be the distance from the eye to the image without a lens L is the distance from the eye to the new virtual image (with a lens) l is the distance from the eye to the lens this equation only covers a single lens (whereas there tend to be two in a microscope), but that's no worry; use it twice! (i.e treat both lenses as independent sources of the image)
Has the eyepiece of a microscope no magnification?
The eyepiece has a magnification and is usually 10x.
