The magnification of a microscope refers to the magnification of the length or width of an object, not the area or volume

Generally speaking, if the magnification of a microscope is 10 * 10, the original one with a length of 1 mm and a width of 1 mm will be magnified into one with a length of 100 mm and a width of 100 mm, instead of enlarging its area or volume by 100 times
