Meaning
Magnification is when the image of an object is made to appear larger than the object.
About Magnification
- A convex lens can be used to magnify the image of an object.
- Different lenses have a different magnification.
Calculating Magnification
Image Length = Object Length x Magnification
Magnification = (Image Length)/(Object Length)
\(Magnification = \frac{L_i}{L_o}\)
Where\[{L_i}\] = Length of the image.
\({L_o}\) = Length of the object.
