Question

What are the magnification abilities of each of the objective lenses? What is the total magnification with each objective?

a) Scanning ( small lens ), red ring = 4x magnification, total magnification = 40x
b) Low-power ( medium lens ), yellow ring = 10x magnification, total magnification = 100x
c) High-power ( large lens ), blue ring = 40x magnification, total magnification = 400x
d) Oil immersion ( largest lens ), white ring = 100x magnification, total magnification = 1000x

Answer 1

The magnification abilities of each objective lens in a microscope and their total magnification.

Step-by-step explanation:

The magnification abilities of each of the objective lenses are as follows:

a) Scanning (small lens), red ring = 4x magnification

b) Low-power (medium lens), yellow ring = 10x magnification

c) High-power (large lens), blue ring = 40x magnification

d) Oil immersion (largest lens), white ring = 100x magnification

The total magnification with each objective can be calculated by multiplying the magnification of the objective lens by 10, which represents the magnification of the ocular lens.
