10 x 5 = 50 the magnification of microscope is 50
The eyepiece has a magnification and is usually 10x.
Multiply the magnification or power of the objective lens times the power of the eyepiece and it equals the total magnification
Magnification of objective multiplied by magnification of eyepiece. I usually work with 40x and 60x ojectives and 10x eyepiece, so total magnifications of my observations are respectively 400 and 600 times.
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)
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.
magnification of objective times magnification of eyepiece
eg. If the lens piece you are looking through is X10 and the objective lens is X100 it would be x1000
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
It would be 50x. To find the magnification, you just have to multiply the number eyepiece and the number objective. So for example, * A 10x eyepiece and a 40x objective would have a magnification of 400x * A 10x eyepiece and a 100x objective would have a magnification of 1,000x
The general formula for Total maginifcation Tm is: Tm= Me x Mob where Me is the magnification produced by the eyepiece and Mob is the magnification produced by the objective.
The magnification of the microscope
The total magnification would be 200x, since the total magnification is the magnification of the objective lens X the magnification of the eyepiece.
Multiply the magnification of the eyepiece (usually 10x) and the magnification of the objective you are using, Example: eyepiece = 10 x objective lense = 40x 10 x 40 = 400 magnification of 400x.
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
10 x 5 = 50 the magnification of microscope is 50
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.
