2. Magnification - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnification

   Thus, through binoculars with 10× magnification, the Moon appears to subtend an angle of about 5.2°. By convention, for magnifying glasses and optical microscopes, where the size of the object is a linear dimension and the apparent size is an angle, the magnification is the ratio between the apparent (angular) size as seen in the eyepiece and ...

3. Magnifying glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnifying_glass

   Magnifying glasses typically have low magnifying power: 2×–6×, with the lower-power types being much more common. At higher magnifications, the image quality of a simple magnifying glass becomes poor due to optical aberrations, particularly spherical aberration. When more magnification or a better image is required, other types of hand ...

4. Dioptre - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dioptre

   The magnifying power V of a simple magnifying glass is related to its optical power φ by V = 0.25 m × φ + 1 {\displaystyle V=0.25\ \mathrm {m} \times \varphi +1} . This is approximately the magnification observed when a person with normal vision holds the magnifying glass close to his or her eye.

5. Optical microscope - Wikipedia

   In the center of the stage is a hole through which light passes to illuminate the specimen. The stage usually has arms to hold slides (rectangular glass plates with typical dimensions of 25×75 mm, on which the specimen is mounted). [citation needed] At magnifications higher than 100× moving a slide by hand is not practical.

6. Optical telescope - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_telescope

   The Large Binocular Telescope at the Mount Graham International Observatory in Arizona uses two curved mirrors to gather light. An optical telescope is a telescope that gathers and focuses light mainly from the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum, to create a magnified image for direct visual inspection, to make a photograph, or to collect data through electronic image sensors.

   The tattooed corpse of a woman was found bizarrely stuffed in a refrigerator dumped in some New Jersey woods — and cops say they need the public’s help identifying her.
