The magnification, or power, at which a telescope is operating is a function of the focal length of the telescope's main (objective) lens (or primary mirror) and the focal length of the eyepiece employed.

What is the magnifying power of the eyepiece used?

That depends on the eyepiece, a 9mm eyepiece will have more magnification than a 22mm eyepiece.


What Equals eyepiece times objective lens?

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


How is total magnification for an objective determined for your microscope?

The standard microscope is that the eyepiece is 10x magnification, and three types of powered magnification helps it magnify even more. Low power is 4x, Medium power is 10x, and High power is 40x. Eyepiece and Low power is 40x, Eyepiece and Medium power is 100x, and Eyepiece and High power is 400x magnification in revolance to the naked eye.


What is the power of the objective lens multiplied by the power of the eyepiece?

The eyepiece is usually 10x, so multiply the objective by 10 to get true magnification


What is the magnifying power of the eyepiece if it has been magnified 100 times under 10 times?

The magnifying power of the eyepiece can be calculated by multiplying the magnification of the eyepiece by the magnification of the objective lens. In this case, if the eyepiece magnifies 10 times and the total magnification is 100 times, the magnifying power of the eyepiece alone is 10 times. Thus, the eyepiece provides a magnification of 10x, while the objective lens contributes the remaining magnification.

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?

The total magnification of a microscope is calculated by multiplying the power of the objective lens by the power of the eyepiece lens. Given a total magnification of 200x and an eyepiece lens power of 10x, the power of the objective lens would be 200x/10x = 20x.

What is calculated by multiplying the power on the objective by the power on the eyepiece?

The total magnification of a compound microscope is calculated by multiplying the magnification power of the objective lens by the magnification power of the eyepiece. This determines how much larger an object will appear when viewed through the microscope.

How do you find the total magnifying power of microscope?

To find the total magnifying power of a microscope, you multiply the magnification of the objective lens by the magnification of the eyepiece. For example, if the objective lens magnifies 10x and the eyepiece magnifies 20x, the total magnifying power would be 10x * 20x = 200x.
