What is typical magnification of the ocular lens on a light microscope?

The typical magnification of the ocular lens on a light microscope is usually 10x, although some microscopes may have ocular lenses with magnifications of 5x, 15x, or even higher. This magnification works in conjunction with the objective lenses to provide a total magnification that can range from 40x to over 1000x, depending on the combination of lenses used.


What is the total magnification of a microscope with a 10X ocular lens and a 45X objective lens?

The total magnification is calculated by multiplying the magnification of the ocular lens by the magnification of the objective lens. In this case, the total magnification would be 10X (ocular) * 45X (objective) = 450X.


WHere are two lenses locate do in a compound microscope used in most classrooms today?

In most classrooms today, a compound microscope typically has two lenses located within the eyepiece and the objective. The eyepiece lens (or ocular lens) is located at the top of the microscope and is used to view the magnified image of the specimen. The objective lens is located near the specimen and is responsible for magnifying the image of the specimen before it reaches the eyepiece.


If a microscope has an ocular with a 5x power and has objectives with powers of 10x and 50x what is the total magnification of?

To calculate the total magnification of a microscope, you multiply the power of the ocular lens by the power of the objective lens being used. For the 10x objective, the total magnification would be 5x (ocular) × 10x (objective) = 50x. For the 50x objective, the total magnification would be 5x × 50x = 250x. Therefore, the total magnification can be either 50x or 250x, depending on the objective lens in use.
