Question

Calculate for the total magnification of scanner, LPO and HPO if the ocular magnification is 5X. *

Answer 1

Answer:

What is the total magnification of the ocular lens is 10x and the objective lens is 100x?

Answer 2

Answer:

• The Total Magnification Of Scanner = 20X
• The Total Magnification Of Scanner = 50X
• The Total Magnification Of Scanner = 200X

Explanation:

The device which is used to magnify object is known as Microscope.

• LPO and HPO stands for Low power objective lens and High Power Objective Lens.
• The lens which moves directly towards the specimen is HPO.
• The lens which rotates away from the specimen is known as LPO.
• The total magnification is defined as the product of the Ocular lens and the Objective lens.
• For Scanning the magnification power used is 4X.
• The Magnification of Low power objective lens is 10X.
• The Magnification of High power objective lens is 40X.

Formula:

• Total magnification = Magnification Objective lens × Magnification  of Ocular lens.

Note: In general the magnification power of Ocular lens is 10X

Here, the ocular magnification given is 5X

Therefore,

The Total Magnification Of Scanner = 4X × 5X

                                                            = 20X

The Total Magnification of LPO = 10X × 5X

                                                     = 50X

The Total Magnification of HPO = 40X × 5X

                                                     = 200X

The maximum total magnification optical microscope is around 1000X
