Questions: A microscope is used to view objects that are too small to be seen by the naked eye. How would you calculate total magnification using the chart below (fill in the blanks)? Powers Objective Lens Eye Piece Magnification -------------------------------------------------- Scanning 4 × 10 × Low 10 × 10 × High 40 × 10 × Oil 100 × 10 ×

To calculate the total magnification of a microscope, you multiply the magnification power of the objective lens by the magnification power of the eyepiece lens. Using the chart provided, we can fill in the blanks for each power setting:

1. Scanning Power:

   • Objective Lens: \(4 \times\)
   • Eye Piece: \(10 \times\)
   • Total Magnification: \(4 \times 10 = 40\)

2. Low Power:

   • Objective Lens: \(10 \times\)
   • Eye Piece: \(10 \times\)
   • Total Magnification: \(10 \times 10 = 100\)

3. High Power:

   • Objective Lens: \(40 \times\)
   • Eye Piece: \(10 \times\)
   • Total Magnification: \(40 \times 10 = 400\)

4. Oil Immersion:

   • Objective Lens: \(100 \times\)
   • Eye Piece: \(10 \times\)
   • Total Magnification: \(100 \times 10 = 1000\)

In summary, the total magnifications for each setting are:

• Scanning: \(40\)
• Low: \(100\)
• High: \(400\)
• Oil: \(1000\)
