magnification
Core and extended
Suppose you were
to draw this ant
It’s a huge ant but we are going
to say it is 10mm long
The drawing looks
about three times the
size of the ant
Let us check that
more scientifically
We need to measure both
the drawing and the ant
Using a ruler measure in
millimetres
Measure the longest part
but ignore appendages
Length of ant = 10mm
Measure the longest part
but ignore appendages
Length of ant = 10mm
Length of drawing = 25mm
Magnification is calculated by:
Magnification
Drawn size
Actual size
= 25mm
10mm
Units cancel
Mag X2.5
Length of ant = 10mm
Length of drawing = 25mm
Mag = 25mm
10mm
Mag X2.5
Mag X2.5
Ask yourself “does this sound about right?”
In this example we are saying the drawing is magnified X2.5
Or it is two and a half times bigger than the actual ant
And that seems about right!
If we draw something
smaller than it actually is
the magnification should
be a fraction
Measure the length but
not the shaft
Actual length = 80mm
Measure the length but
not the shaft
Drawn length = 40mm
Mag = drawn size
actual size
= 40mm
80mm
Mag X1/2
In other words the drawing was half
the size of the actual feather
It was magnified x1/2
Mag X1/2
That sounds
about right
We can use a scale bar to find the actual size of an
image
First we measure the scale bar
100µm = 20mm
100µm = 20 000µm
Next we calculate how much the image has been
magnified by seeing how much the scale bar is
magnified
100µm = 20mm
100µm = 20 000µm
The scale bar is magnified
20 000/100
=X200
What this means is the picture has been magnified
200 times
100µm = 20mm
100µm = 20 000µm
The scale bar is magnified
20 000/100
=X2000
Next we measure the cell we are interested in
100µm = 20mm
100µm = 20 000µm
The scale bar is magnified
20 000/100
=200times
The cell is 17mm
Or 17 000µm
Now we can find the actual length of the cell
100µm = 20mm
100µm = 20 000µm
The scale bar is magnified
20 000/100
=200times
Mag = image size/ actual size
Actual size = image size/mag
= 17000µm/200
= 85µm
This cell has a diameter of 85µm
Can you find the magnification of this cell using the scale
bar provided?
Remember to convert mm to µm

Magnification

  • 2. Suppose you were to draw this ant It’s a huge ant but we are going to say it is 10mm long
  • 3. The drawing looks about three times the size of the ant
  • 4. Let us check that more scientifically We need to measure both the drawing and the ant Using a ruler measure in millimetres
  • 5. Measure the longest part but ignore appendages Length of ant = 10mm
  • 6. Measure the longest part but ignore appendages Length of ant = 10mm Length of drawing = 25mm
  • 7. Magnification is calculated by: Magnification Drawn size Actual size = 25mm 10mm Units cancel Mag X2.5
  • 8. Length of ant = 10mm Length of drawing = 25mm Mag = 25mm 10mm Mag X2.5
  • 9. Mag X2.5 Ask yourself “does this sound about right?” In this example we are saying the drawing is magnified X2.5 Or it is two and a half times bigger than the actual ant And that seems about right!
  • 10. If we draw something smaller than it actually is the magnification should be a fraction
  • 11.
  • 12. Measure the length but not the shaft Actual length = 80mm
  • 13. Measure the length but not the shaft Drawn length = 40mm
  • 14. Mag = drawn size actual size = 40mm 80mm Mag X1/2 In other words the drawing was half the size of the actual feather It was magnified x1/2
  • 16. We can use a scale bar to find the actual size of an image
  • 17. First we measure the scale bar 100µm = 20mm 100µm = 20 000µm
  • 18. Next we calculate how much the image has been magnified by seeing how much the scale bar is magnified 100µm = 20mm 100µm = 20 000µm The scale bar is magnified 20 000/100 =X200
  • 19. What this means is the picture has been magnified 200 times 100µm = 20mm 100µm = 20 000µm The scale bar is magnified 20 000/100 =X2000
  • 20. Next we measure the cell we are interested in 100µm = 20mm 100µm = 20 000µm The scale bar is magnified 20 000/100 =200times The cell is 17mm Or 17 000µm
  • 21. Now we can find the actual length of the cell 100µm = 20mm 100µm = 20 000µm The scale bar is magnified 20 000/100 =200times Mag = image size/ actual size Actual size = image size/mag = 17000µm/200 = 85µm
  • 22. This cell has a diameter of 85µm
  • 23. Can you find the magnification of this cell using the scale bar provided? Remember to convert mm to µm
