Magnification = size of image x size of real object
|
|
Magnification = size of real object / size of image
|
|
Magnification = size of image / size of real object
|
|
Magnification = size of real object x size of image
|
Detailed explanation-1: -Magnification = image size / actual size. Actual size = image size / magnification. Image size = magnification x actual size.
Detailed explanation-2: -The formula for calculating magnification is simply the size of the object in the microscope divided by the actual size of the object. For example, if a cell is viewed under a microscope and appears to be 10 times larger than its actual size, the magnification would be 10x.
Detailed explanation-3: -Calculation of Actual Size: To calculate the actual size of a magnified specimen, the equation is simply rearranged: Actual Size = Image size (with ruler) รท Magnification.
Detailed explanation-4: -The ratio of the height of an image ( ) to the height of an object ( ) is defined as the magnification of a lens. Also, magnification is equal to the ratio of image distance to that of object distance. The formula is m = h i h o .
