Eyepieces aren't usually made to refract light like a glasses' lense is, so they don't.
Magnifcation (: Haha was looking for an answer to this too!
it's impossible to just use the eyepiece without an objective lens, but the eyepiece alone is 10x.
450x. Total magnification is calculated by multiplying the magnification of the objective lens by the magnification of the eyepiece lens. In this case, 10x (eyepiece) multiplied by 45x (objective) equals 450x for total magnification.
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.
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
The total magnification of a microscope is calculated by multiplying the magnification of the eyepiece by the magnification of the objective lens. In this case, 20X eyepiece multiplied by 40X objective gives a total magnification of 800X.
The total magnification is the object magnification for example 4x,10x etc. times eyepiece magnification usually 10x and you get the total magnification. The objective lens magnification is the lens right above the slide usually 4x,10x etc.
The total magnification is calculated by multiplying the magnification of the eyepiece by the magnification of the objective. In this case, total magnification = 15 (eyepiece) x 4 (objective) = 60.
Example: 4 = Low Power 10 = Med. Power 40 = High Power 100 = Eyepiece Low Power x Eyepiece = 40x Med. Power x Eyepiece = 100x High Power x Eyepiece = 400x
To find the total magnification, you multiply the magnification of the objective lens by the magnification of the eyepiece lens. In this case, if the total magnification is 20x and the objective lens is 45x, you can determine the eyepiece magnification by dividing the total magnification by the objective magnification: 20x / 45x = 0.44x. Therefore, the eyepiece lens would have a magnification of approximately 0.44x.
The eyepiece on a microscope typically magnifies the image by a factor of 10x, although this can vary depending on the specific eyepiece used. Some specialized eyepieces may offer higher magnifications, such as 15x or 20x. The total magnification of the microscope is calculated by multiplying the eyepiece magnification by the objective lens magnification. For example, using a 10x eyepiece with a 40x objective results in a total magnification of 400x.
When using a 4x objective lens on a microscope, the total magnification is calculated by multiplying the objective lens magnification by the eyepiece magnification. If the eyepiece (ocular) lens is typically 10x, the total magnification would be 4x (objective) × 10x (eyepiece) = 40x. Therefore, when scanning with a 4x objective, the total magnification will be 40x.
