Total magnification = Magnification of objective lens x Magnification of eyepiece lens
Total magnification = 40x x 40x = 1600x
Actual length of image = Actual length of specimen / Total magnification
Actual length of image = 0.5 mm / 1600 = 0.0003125 mm = 0.3125 μm
Answer: The total magnification of the microscope is 1600x. The actual length of the image formed is 0.3125 μm.
