What happens when you look through a concave lens?
When you see through a concave lens you see a magnified view of what you wish to see
How do scientists know about the structure of an atom?
by looking at them through electron microscopes
How do the lenses in light microscopes magnify an object?
This is done through the law of reflection and of course magnification. light is passed through the specimen and through the objective lenses. each objective lenses have different degrees of magnification powers. they have 10x, 40x, and oil immersion lens which has magnification up to 100x. the image is then passed through the eye piece and which also has another set of lens which further enhance the image with a magnification up to 10x and finally we view the magnified object.
Why you coat the sample with a conductive material in a electron microscope?
Electron microscopes work by reflecting electrons from the sample to build an image. This achieves a higher degree of magnification than conventional microscopy which uses reflected photons (light) to build a magnified image. However, samples which are often viewed under an electron microscope (particularly biological samples) would not reflect the electrons by themselves, but would allow them to pass straight through. Coating the sample with a conductive metal ensures that the electrons are reflected by the coated sample so that a magnified image can be built up
Describe how a light microscope creates a magnified image?
A light microscope creates a magnified image through a series of lenses. The light rays reflected from the viewed abject, pass through these many lenses and form an enlarged picture of the object. It is able to show the fine details of the object that most people are studying or looking for.

What is the difference between a compound microscope and a light microscopes?
light microscopes shoe only black and white pictures. When a compound microscope shows color when you look through the eye-piece.
What is the difference in the way light microscopes and electron electron microscopes produce images?
light microscopes allow light to pass through the specimen and use two lenses to form an image. Electron microscopes use beams of electrons, rather than light, to produce images.
What is the difference in the way light microscropes and electron microscopes produce images?
There compared by frist the electron micrscope the electron microscope you can cut into a cell (any) and there huge they can zoom into about 2000X.The light microscope has a light to see [other one doesn't need] and light one can only zoom to 20X.
Types of microscope and their uses?
Compound microscopes can be found in most biology and science classrooms. They are electrically operated and use light to enhance the image of a cell. They will have multiple lenses for viewing.Dissecting microscopes are also known as stereo microscopes. They have low magnification and are also light powered. These microscopes can view objects larger than what a compound microscope is able to handle, in three dimensions.Scanning Electron Microscopes use electrons instead of light to create an image. These microscopes produce three-dimensional images with high resolution and magnification. They also have a larger depth of focus.Transmission Electron Microscopes use electrons instead of light to create an image. The material prepared must be very thin. The beams of electrons that pass through it give the viewer high magnification and resolution. These give two-dimensional images.Electron microscopes are one of the most advanced microscopes used today. This microscope is powered by a beam of electrons with very short wavelengths. These electrons strike objects that come in its path and helps increase the resolution of the microscope. The electron microscope is one of the types of microscopes used to study cells like tiny viral cells as well as larger molecules.
How to determine the total magnification when using any objective of your microscope?
Ask a jellyfish yea.....well if you don't have a jellyfish around when you need it, you can also look at the magnifier, so if a regular microscope has 4x under lwo power, it is 40x, due to 10x already when you look through the ocular piece. so medium power is 10x, would be 100 times magnified, and 40x for high is 400 times magnified.

Why are electron microscopes capable of revealing details much smaller than those seen through light microscopes?
Electron microscopes are capable of revealing details as much as 1000 times smaller than those visible in light microscopes because the wavelengths of electrons are much shorter than those of light.
How do you use the word magnified in a sentence?
The scientist magnified the tiny particles.
What is the difference between ocular and objectives?
Ocular lens- part of a compound microscope that a user looks into to see a magnified image. It is a see through doubled lens curved to cause images to appear larger.
Who invented the microscope in 1656-1930?
The first microscope was made around 1595 in Middelburg, Holland. Three different eyeglass makers have been given credit for the invention: Hans Lippershey (who also developed the first real telescope); Hans Janssen; and his son, Zacharias. The coining of the name "microscope" has been credited to Giovanni Faber, who gave that name to Galileo Galilei's compound microscope in 1625. (Galileo had called it the "occhiolino" or "little eye".) The most common type of microscope-and the first to be invented-is the optical microscope. This is an optical instrument containing one or more lenses that produce an enlarged image of an object placed in the focal plane of the lens(es). There are, however, many other microscope designs. "Microscopes" can largely be separated into three classes: optical theory microscopes (Light microscope), electron microscopes (e.g.,TEM), and scanning probe microscopes (SPM). Optical theory microscopes are microscopes which function through the optical theory of lenses in order to magnify the image generated by the passage of a wave through the sample. The waves used are either electromagnetic (in optical microscopes) or electron beams (in electron microscopes). The types are the Compound Light, Stereo, and the electron microscope.
