In a transmission electron micrograph, a spherical transport vesicle, structure V, has the following measurement:
The volume of a sphere is calculated using the equation:
volume=43πr3 \text{volume} = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 volume=34πr3where rrr is the real radius of the sphere.
The diameter of the image of structure V in the micrograph is 4.5 mm4.5\text{ mm}4.5 mm.
Calculate the magnification of structure V in the micrograph.
Use π=3.14\pi = 3.14π=3.14.
