The total magnification of a microscope is calculated by multiplying the magnification of the eyepiece lens by the magnification of the objective lens.
Given that the eyepiece lens magnification is x5 and the total magnification is x500, we can calculate the magnification of the objective lens as follows:
Total magnification = Eyepiece lens magnification x Objective lens magnification 500 = 5 x Objective lens magnification Objective lens magnification = 500 / 5 Objective lens magnification = 100
Therefore, the magnification of the objective lens is x100.
