What is the differnece between a simple microscope and compound microscope?

A simple microscope has only one lens and can magnify an object up to 15 times the object's size. A compound microscope has two lenses and can magnify an object more than 2,000 times.

40X


What is the best instrument to magnify twenty times?

Probably a microscope would be the best to magnify something 20 times. add simple lenses and couplets have fairly serious limitations beyond 8 - 10 times.


How many times larger will an object appear if the microscope is set on the high power objective?

This depends entirely on the microscope you are using. Typical high lenses are 150x to 250x, some to 400x.


How did galileos improved telescope allow him to support the heliocentric theory?

Galileo Galilei made the telescope by putting two lenses in to a wooden tube. the lenses focused the light coming through the tube, making the distant ojects seem closer.


Where are the two lenses located in a compound microscope?

One at the top, one at the bottom: See related link. The eye piece lens is closest to the eye when observing The objective lens is closest to the object being observed.


Function of HPO in microscope?

The Word "HPO" in Microscope stands for High Power Objective.Most standard compound microscopes use a combination of an eye piece lens and objective lenses in order to magnify an object. In the majority of these microscopes, the eye piece lens will have a magnification factor of 10 x, or ten times the original size, and the objective lens system will consist of three lenses of varying focal lengths, described as low, medium and high power objective lenses.The magnification factors (MF) of the three objective lenses are usually as follows:Low Power Objective (LPO) Lens, MF = 4 xMedium Power Objective (MPO) Lens, MF = 10 xHigh Power Objective (HPO) Lens, MF = 40 xThe total magnification possible with a standard compound microscope is the multiple of the magnification factor of the eye piece lens and the objective lens in use. In other words, total magnification using the LPO lens would be 40 times the original size, the MPO lens would achieve a total magnification of 100 times, while the HPO lens will achieve a total magnification of 400 times the original size of the object to be viewed.The HPO lens is longer, and therefore closer to to the object viewed, resulting in a narrower field of vision, making it difficult to study living, fast moving organisms. It does, however, make it possible to see details which are not visible on lower magnification on non-living specimens or slow moving living organisms. The HPO lens allows users to zoom in on specific areas of an object to be viewed and identify details not visible on lower magnifications.The function of the HPO lens on a microscope is therefore to provide maximum possible magnification in order to view and identify details which can not be discerned while viewing the object through an objective lens with a lower magnification factor.


Which microscope has the greatest magnification transmission microscope or scanning microscope?

transmission microscopes. they can magnify an object 1 million times.


How many times is the image of the e magnified when you view through the high power objective 40?

It depends on what magnification the ocular lens is (usually 10x), then you multiply that by the objective lens magnification (what you said to be 40x). So the microscope would magnify your specimen by 400 times.
