Question

If your high power objective is 40x and your eyepiece is 15x, the total magnification is _____x. 55 600 900 100

Answer 1

Ocular Lens * Objective Lens = Total Magnification

15 * 40 = 600x

Answer 2

Answer: The correct answer for the fill in the blank is 600

Explanation-

As per the question, the magnification of high power objective
`(m_(o) )` = 40x

Magnification of eye piece
`(m_(e) )= 15x`

Total magnification

`m= m_(o) * m_(e)`

Putting the values of
`m_(o)\text{ and }m_e`

= 40×15

= 600

Thus, total magnification= 600x
