2) mm x1000 = um
3) Image size = um
4) Magnification = Image + Actual
_ _Image size
Step 1)
Measure the image size using a ruler in
millimetres (mm)
Step 2)
Convert the millimetres (mm) into
micrometres (um)
Step 3)
Divide your answer by the actual size
Magnification = um = um
Magnification =
The picture shows the eye magnified (zoomed in) by times.
