Question

A student views the image of a cell magnified 40000 times the image is 50mm long calculate the actual length of the sample in micrometers

Answer 1

Answer:

  1.25 µm

Explanation:

The cell will have a length dimension that is 1/40000 times the length of the image:

  (50·10^-3 m)/(40·10^3) = 1.25·10^-6 m = 1.25 µm

Answer 2

Answer:

1.25 |um

Explanation:

• The actual lenth of the sample in micrometers.
