What happens to the diameter of the field of the view when you change for low to high power?

The diameter of a field is decreased by 1.5 millimeters when changed from low power to high power magnification.


Does low power or high power have a smaller field but magnifies to a greater extent?

hight power


What is the diameter of the high power field of a microscope in micrometers?

the diameter of the high power field microscope is 500 micrometers


What happens to the depth of field as your move from low power to high power?

Depth of field decreases from low to high. This means what you see under the microscope is blurry. If both objects are not blurry, this means you have high depth-of-field.


What is the approximate length of a cell that fills one half of the field of view under high power if the field of view for high power is 300 microns?

Why is locating an object more difficult if you start with the high-power objective rather than the low power obejctive exspically the brightness whats up with that?

The reason it is more difficult is that the 'field of view' is much smaller, the higher the objective power. In other words, you don't have to be so exactly 'on target' with a lower objective power, as the field of view is larger in proportion to the object being viewed, so the object can be farther off to one side or the other, and still be seen. Once found in the lower power field, center the object in the field and then switch to the higher power- the object should then be in the higher power field of view. This is true for microscopes and telescopes, as well as any instrument that magnifies at different powers of magnification.


Is 10 hpf 10 a high mitotic rate?

NO, it means 10× high power field e.g. 1-2/10HPF means there are 1-2 per 10 × high power field


When viewing object under power you are able to see a larger field of view but not as much retail?

when viewing objects under high-power, the field of view is smaller, but you are able to see more details.


What happens to Field of View when you change from low power to oil immersion high power?

The field of view is inversely related to the magnification power...the greater the magnification, the smaller the field of view


Why was it necessary to move the letter e to the center of the low power field before changing to high power?

The high power field, though more magnified, covers a much smaller slice of the field of vision. If not centered the e could disappear to one side or the other.


Is the field of view brighter or dimmer under high power?

Dimmer.


What are the dangers of high power objective?

The field for the high power objective is very small, so if you do not have the organism or whatever you want to view in focus on a lower power, it may be very difficult to find on high power. Also, the lens for the higher power objectives are longer than the lower ones, which makes them closer physically to the slide that you are viewing than the lower objectives. Thus you must use the fine tuning knob to sharpen the image in high power, because you could break the slide if you use the course adjustment knob.
