To switch on the microscope, which needs light. Since sunlight isn't as reliable at all times during the day and night, modern microscopes have lamps that require electricity to work.
Microscope works due to refraction.
Concave lenses work by refraction of light.
yes it will work like a magnifying glass
steps on how to work out the total magnifying power of a microscope
Best Answer - Chosen by VotersBecause they use light and powerful magnifying lenses. It is to distinguish them from Electron microscopes which work on a different principle.

Most microscopes have 4 to 5 lenses. The lenses are:The three Objects (which are the three things that you use to microscope)The lens that you you put your on.And the mirror lens.
A microscope or a loupe, or a magnifying glass would work for that.
Because it is made up of more than one lens. A simple microscope is make up of one lens (a hand held magnifying glass can also be considered as a simple microscope). In a compound microscope, one cannot see the magnified image until both the lenses are used.
A microscope is a tube that holds glass lens mounted that have the right focal properties that magnify the image.
Do not touch lenses. ALWAYS start with the least magnification, and work upwards. Clean slides and microscope when finished with it. Cover microscope with dust cover when not in use. Never swing the microscope.
Magnifying glasses work bending light through a convex glass lens or set of lenses. One great site to check is eHow.com; the answers provided are written so most people can understand the basics easily.
If you wear eyeglasses or contact lenses, then you depend on the refraction of light every minute you're awake and have them on. It's also kind of important if you ever want to use a telescope, a microscope, a magnifying glass, or a camera. To be perfectly honest with you, the eyes in your head could not work without refraction.
That depends on the type of microscope you are using, so check the lab you work or go to school in. At my lab, our microscopes have 4x, 10x, 40x, 100x magnification lenses.
Contact lenses work very similarly to glasses in terms of repairing vision. They are magnified lenses that enlarge everything in sight. Lenses are shaped to conform to the shape of your eyes. Once patients who wear them get comfortable wearing them, they shouldn't even notice they are in. Special lenses are made for those with irregularly shaped eyes (astigmatisms, toric lenses). These are supposed to fit better and not fall out or get irritated as often.
