A scientist observed a cell using an electron microscope. The size of the image was 25mm. The magnification was x 100,000. Calculate the real size of the cell. Give your answer in micrometers

Respuesta :

Working Formula:

Cell Size = Image size/Magnification

Substituting the given figures to the formula, we get

Cell Size = 25/100000 = 0.00025 mm

To convert millimeters to micrometers, use conversion of 1 mm = 1000 micrometers. Thus, we multiply the answer by 1000.

Therefore,

Cell Size = 0.25 micrometers
