What is the total magnification you are using to view the cells if you are using the 40x objective to view the slide with a 10x eyepiece?
To calculate the total magnification, you multiply the magnification of the objective lens by the magnification of the eyepiece. In this case, using a 40x objective with a 10x eyepiece results in a total magnification of 400x (40x × 10x = 400x). Thus, you are viewing the cells at 400 times their actual size.

How is magnification calculated using simple micrroscope?
Total magnification is determined by multiplying the magnification of the ocular lens by that of the objective lens. Compound microscope that uses more than one lens to direct light through a specimen mounted on a glass slide.
The power of the ocular-lens on a microscope?
An ocular lens is the top part of a microscope it is the eyepiece that you look through. The ocular lens is there it magnify whatever if being viewed. It can be different strengths base on the size power of the lens.
A student is observing a slide of blood cells by using the low-power objective of a light microscope The cells are too small to examineso the student switches to the high-power objective The cells?
The cells will appear larger and more detailed under the high-power objective due to the higher magnification provided by this lens. This allows the student to see finer details of the blood cells and make more precise observations. It is common practice to start observing samples with a lower magnification objective before moving to higher magnifications for a more in-depth analysis.
What is the function of the tube on the microscope?
The tube on a microscope holds the eyepiece(s) and allows the viewer to look through the lenses to observe the magnified specimen on the slide below. It also provides the appropriate distance between the eyepiece and objective lenses for clear focus and magnification.
The magnification of a telescope is changed by changing the what?
The magnification of a telescope is the ratio of the effective focal length of the objective to the focal length of the eyepiece. For example, a small telescope's objective may have a focal length of 800mm. When an eyepiece with a focal length of 25mm is used, the magnification is 800/25 = 32. The term "effective focal length" refers to the focal length of the objective as affected by any "focal extender". Many telescopes are designed to have a short total size, but high power, by "folding" the optical path. A mirror-type objective with a focal length of perhaps 800mm is coupled with a smaller curved mirror that intercepts the last 200mm and extends it to 800mm, a 4x extension, so that the effective focal length of that objective is 3200mm. Use that with a 25mm eyepiece and the magnification is 3200/25 = 128. By the way, if a telescope is smaller than you are, it is seldom much use to view using a magnification greater than 50 to 100. Most objects are best viewed at relatively low powers such as 30 or so.
Is total magnification an eyepiece magnification plus an objective magnification?
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.

What is does a eye piece of a microscope?
The eyepiece of a microscope is the part that you look through to view the specimen on the slide. It usually contains lenses that further magnify the image produced by the objective lens. The eyepiece typically has a standard magnification power of 10x.
How does 4x on the low power equal 40 x on the microscope?
The objective lens (right above the slide stage) is 4x. The eyepiece (what you look into) is 10x. 4 times 10 = 40. Whatever the objective lens power is, you have to multiply it by the eyepiece power (usually 10x) to get the overall magnification.
Would the ocular unit increase or decrease as magnification increases?
The ocular unit, which refers to the eyepiece in a microscope, remains constant in size regardless of the magnification level. As you increase magnification, the objective lens brings the specimen into closer focus without changing the size of the eyepiece. The ocular unit only magnifies the image produced by the objective lens, but does not physically change in size.
What does the objective lens in a microscope do?
The objective lens in a microscope is responsible for magnifying the specimen being viewed. It gathers light from the specimen and focuses it to create an enlarged image that can be viewed through the eyepiece. The objective lens determines the resolution and magnification of the microscope.
How do you properly focus a slide image?
To properly focus a slide image, adjust the focus knob on the microscope while looking through the eyepiece. Begin with the lowest magnification objective lens and then fine-tune the focus using the higher magnification lenses for more detail. Make small adjustments until the image is sharp and clear.
