Enter the distance of the object from the lens and the distance the image is formed from the lens to determine the Magnification.
Magnification Formula
The following equation is used to calculate the magnification produced by a lens.
M = v / u
- Where M is the magnification
- v is the distance the image is formed by the lens
- u is the distance of the object from the lens
Example
How to calculate magnificiation?
- First, determine the distance of the object from the lens.
Using a measurement device, determine the total distance from the object to the lens.
- Next, determine the distance of the image formed by the lens.
As done in step 1, measure the total distance of the image formed by the lens.
- Finally, calculate the magnification.
Plug in the values from steps 1 and 2 into the formula to calculate the magnification.
FAQ
What is magnification?
Magnification is the process of a lens refracted the image of an object onto a surface where it’s large than the object itself.
What does a magnification value mean?
A magnification value of 3, for example, means that the image is 3 times the size of the object.
