Here are a few practice problems for microscope calculations:

A microscope has an eyepiece with a magnification of 20X

and 3 objectives: one with 5X one with 10X and one with

40X magnification. (Use this information for 1-6)

1) What is the magnifiction at low power?

2) What is the magnifiction at medium power?

3) What is the magnifiction at high power?

4-6) If the diameter of the low power field is 4.7 mm

4) Give the diameter of the low power field in microns.

5) Give the diameter of the medium power field in microns.

6) Give the diameter of the high power field in microns.

Here are the answers to 1-6:

1) 20 x 5 = 100X 2) 20 x 10 = 200X 3) 20 x 40 = 800X

4) 4.7 mm x 1000 = 4700 microns

5) 4700 microns x 5X/10X = 2350 microns

or you can solve this by this method

4700 microns x 100X/200X = 2350 microns

6) 4700 microns x 5X/40X = 587.5 microns

or you can solve this by this method

4700 microns x 100X/800X = 587.5 microns
