What is a combination of an ocular and an objective called?
A combination of an ocular and an objective in a microscope is called an eyepiece. The eyepiece is the lens at the top of the microscope that you look through to see the specimen.
Calculate the magnification of a microscope with a 20X eyepiece and a 40X objective?
The total magnification of a microscope is calculated by multiplying the magnification of the eyepiece by the magnification of the objective lens. In this case, 20X eyepiece multiplied by 40X objective gives a total magnification of 800X.
