The coarse adjustment (up or down) is used to quickly move closer to or away from the focal point of the specimen. The fine adjustment is then used to fine tune the focus and bring the specimen into clear view.Coarse adjustment means big movements up or down. Fine adjustment means very small movements until the specimen is in focus.


What is the use of the coarse adjustment knob?

The course adjustment moves the stage of the microscope further/closer away from the objective lens (it is used for general focusing), and the fine adjustment moves the objective lens very small distances for finer focusing.


Why coarse adjustment screw being used with low power objective?

The depth of field is so small that a very small vertical travel could shift the focus from the top of the specimen to the bottom. A very fine adjustment must be used, which is why the coarse adjustment screw is implemented.

What part of the microscope should you used to focus the image when using high power objective lens?

First of all, one should never call it high power, it is morecommonly called the "high objective", yet that is not what this question is asking. To answer the question: You use the fine adjustment knob. This knob should be located near the coarse adjustment knob, on the opposite side of the microscope (at the same height as the coarse adjustment knob), or even as a separate knob protruding from the coarse adjustment knob. The fine adjustment knob is smaller in size. You should never, ever use the coarse adjustment knob under the high objective, you could scratch the microscope slide, cover slip, high objective lens, or in a worst case scenario break the high objective lens.

Why must the distance from slide to objective lens increase rather than decrease when coarse focusing with the scannin and low power objectives?

According to my neurons that the distance from slide to objective lens should be increase rather than decrease when coarse focusing with the scanner and LPO to obtain a clearer and more focus structure of a certain specimen.. U must ensure that the coarse adjustment knob is at it's extent and then turn on the fine adjustment knob clockwise for the easier visibility of the specimen =)) - VALERIC ACID ...sPCUTE ..=)
