Why is locating an object more difficult if you start with high power objective than with the low power objective?

When using a microscope, you are magnifying the area under the lens by however many times the magnification is on your lens. On low power the area expanded by the lens is smaller than on high magnification. When on low power more is visible and there is less area to search for your given object under the microscope. I recommend finding the object on low magnification, and then switching to high once you have found it.

What is the function of the high power objective on a microscope?

The high power objective on a microscope increases the magnification of the specimen, which allows you to see more detail. It allows you to see a close up of only a small area of the specimen being viewed.


When looking through a microscope what power are you on when the object is smaller but you are able to see more detail?

high power

What does low power and high power mean on the microscope?

low power means we observed specimen at 40x and for more clear result we go to high resolution wich is 100x with the use of oil emmersion


How is total magnification for an objective determined for your microscope?

The standard microscope is that the eyepiece is 10x magnification, and three types of powered magnification helps it magnify even more. Low power is 4x, Medium power is 10x, and High power is 40x. Eyepiece and Low power is 40x, Eyepiece and Medium power is 100x, and Eyepiece and High power is 400x magnification in revolance to the naked eye.


What is the power of the high power lens?

scanning-40x low-100x high-400x


Which focusing knob do you never use under high power?

The coarse adjustment knob should never be used when viewing in high power with a compound microscope. When in high power, use the coarse adjustment (the knob smaller than the coarse adj.) to more accurately focus on the subject.


What does the cell nucleus look like under medium power objective of the microscope?

When looking at aÊmedium power microscope, the cell nucleus looks like a black spot or a darker oval in the cell. Using a high power will let you see a little more detail such as areas of light and dark chromatin.


What is the electrone microscope?

An electron microscope can cost US$40000 to US$150,000 depending on the size, quality, lenses and technology used. The more the power the more is the cost.


Can you see more cell things with a low powered microscope or a high powered microscope?

The size of the cell remains the same no matter what power objective is used. However, the magnification changes between these two objective lenses, with the low power objective magnifying it less than the high power objective.
