Question

If the diameter of the field on low power is about 2.5 mm, an object that takes up half that field is about how big?

a) .5mm
b) 1.25mm
c) 2.5mm
d) none of the above

Answer 1

An object that takes up half the field of view with a diameter of 2.5 mm on low power would be about 1.25 mm big, making the correct answer b) 1.25 mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the diameter of the field of view on low power is about 2.5 mm, and an object takes up half that field, we can calculate the size of the object by dividing the diameter of the field by 2. In this case, we take 2.5 mm and divide it by 2:

2.5 mm ÷ 2 = 1.25 mm

Therefore, an object that takes up half the field on low power is about 1.25 mm big. The correct answer is b) 1.25 mm.
