Hii dear,
# Answer- 0.035 mm
## Explanation-
# Given-
Observed thickness = 3.5 mm
Magnification m = 100
# Solution-
Magnifiying power of a microscope is given by formula,
Magnification = observed value/actual value
Hence, here
Actual thickness = observed thickness/magnification
Actual thickness = 3.5/100
Actual thickness = 0.035 mm
Hence, actual estimate of thickness of hair is 0.035 mm.
Hope that solved your query.
Keep asking.

Magnification of the microscope = 100
Average width of the hair in the field of view of the microscope = 3.5 mm
∴Actual thickness of the hair is
3.5/100
= 0.035 mm.
I hope, this will help you
