A student microscope has a 10× objective and a 15× eyepiece. A student is using the microscope to view a thin slice of an apple. The cells in the apple have a diameter of 0.10 mm. Assume a length L = 160 mm.
part a:
How far from the objective lens should the apple slice be placed?
part b:
Determine the angular size of a cell when viewed through the microscope.
part c:
Determine the angular size of a 19-mm-diameterpenny at a distance of 25 cm.
