A student measures the thickness of a human hair by looking at it through a microscope of magnification 100. He makes 20 observations and finds that the average width of the hair in the field of view of the microscope is 3.5 mm. What is the estimate on the thickness of hair?
उत्तर
Magnification of the microscope = 100
Average width of the hair in the field of view of the microscope = 3.5 mm
`"Actual thickness" = "Observed width"/"Magnification"`
= `(3.5 "mm")/100`
= 0.035 mm
