Detailed explanation-1: -The total magnification is determined by multiplying the magnification of the ocular and objective lenses.
Detailed explanation-2: -Simply multiply the magnification of the eyepiece by the magnification of the objective lens. The magnification of both microscope eyepieces and objectives is almost always engraved on the barrel (objective) or top (eyepiece). Look for numbers like 10x, 12.5x, etc.
Detailed explanation-3: -To calculate the total magnification of a microscope, simply multiply the power of the ocular lens by the power of the objective lens. For example, if the ocular lens is 5X and the objective lens is 12X, the total magnification would be 5 x 12 or 60X.
Detailed explanation-4: -The magnification of the ocular lenses on your scope is 10X. Immersion Oil: Clear, finely detailed images are achieved by contrasting the specimen with their medium. Changing the refractive index of the specimens from their medium attains this contrast.
Detailed explanation-5: -Scanning Objective Lens (4x) The name “scanning” objective lens comes from the fact that they provide observers with about enough magnification for a good overview of the slide, essentially a “scan” of the slide.
