Magnification Calculations Flashcards
As you move from larger measurements (eg. mm) to smaller measurements (eg.pm), what happens to the number at each unit of conversion?
1000 larger
(Or X 1000)
As you move from smaller measurements (eg. pm) to larger measurements (eg. mm), what happens to the number at each unit of conversion?
/ 1000
Complete the Magnification Equation Triangle:
Image size <— I
—
