1,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Therefore, a 10x eyepiece used with a 40X objective lens, will produce a magnification of 400X. The naked eye can now view the specimen at a magnification 400 times greater and so microscopic details are revealed. More on objective lenses here. Magnification is the ability to view an object as larger.
