Question 6f
The diagram showed that the bilayer is 7nm thick. Calculate the magnification of the drawing. Show your working.
Steps for Calculation:
- Measure the Size of the Drawing
- Use a ruler to measure the length of the object in the drawing. Ensure this measurement is in the same units as the actual size, or convert it if needed.
- Determine the Actual Size of the Object
- The actual size of the object should be given in the question or provided in units (e.g., micrometers, millimeters).
- Divide the Size of the Drawing by the Actual Size
- Substitute the measured drawing size and the actual size into the formula.
- State the Magnification
- Ensure the magnification is written as a multiplication factor (e.g., 100x) without units.
Example Calculation:
If the drawing is measured to be 50 mm and the actual size of the object is 5 mm:
Note: If you provide the actual measurements or the scale, I can help calculate the magnification more accurately.
