Page 1 of 12 Microscope calculations 1. Converting between units You only need to remember two sums to convert between any units. Basic conversions Complete the table below Example 1 Example 2 Convert 2350nm Convert 143mm 2350nm 1000 = m 143mm x 1000 = 143,000 m m 1000 = 143,000 m x 1000 = 143,000,000nm Millimetre Micrometre Nanometre 1580 174 3 18 23 8 5 Page 2 of 12 2. The equation triangle This equation triangle gives you 3 equations. What are they? Image = Actual = Magnification = Basic calculations 1. A human hair is 25 m and is observed at x400. a) Calculate the size of the image in m. b) Calculate the size of this image in mm. 2. A bacterial cell is drawn 1000mm long. It was viewed at a magnification of x500. a) Calculate the size of the bacteria in mm. b) Calculate the size of the bacteria in m. 3. A mitochondria was drawn 20mm long. Its actual size is 2 m.
(a) What type of microscope was used to create the image above? _____ (1) (b) The magnification of the cress root in the image above is × 210. There are 1000 micrometres (μm) in a millimetre (mm). Calculate the real length of the root hair, …
