Principle

Although this experiment can be performed directly following an experiment on the construction and mode of operation of a microscope, it is recommended that it be performed separately; otherwise students might feel overly challanged.

Benefits

  • Multifunctional light box - All-in-one: Can be used for geometric optics on the table, colour mixing and on an optical bench
  • Extension with others sets at anytime, no additional light sources needed, recognition value for students

Tasks

How can the magnification of a microscope be determined? Construct a model of a microscope and determine its achievable magnification.
