what is the total magnification of a microscope with two lenses when one lens has a magnification of 10x, and the other lens has a magnification of 30x?



Answer :

The total magnification of a microscope or set of lenses is 300x.

Magnification is the process of enlarging an object's image in relation to its size using a mirror, whether it be convex or concave.

There is no unit for magnification. The fact that it is a measurement ratio is the cause. It is the proportion of an object's size to that of an image.

Calculating the overall magnification is straightforward math once each lens's specific magnification is known. Add the combined magnification of the lenses.

Given

magnification of the first lens, l1 =  10x

magnification of the second lens, l2 =  30x

Total magnification = product of the magnification of all the lenses.

Thus, to compute the total magnification of a microscope, multiply the two lenses' magnification powers.

Consequently, the lenses' combined magnification will be - 10*30.

Thus the total magnification of a microscope or set of lenses is 300x.
