Compare and contrast resolution and magnification?

Magnification is something being magnified or expanded under a microscope to make it easier to see. Resolution is being able to clearly identify one thing from the other under a microscope.


How does the microscope change the image you see?

Why is the image of a letter inverted under a microscope?because it has a mirror below the stage ( the one where the specimens are being examind ) it dont reflects sunlight but also the image of a letter


Has an objective lens that creates an image of the object which is enlarged by the eyepiece?

When needing to make something larger you will need a microscope. A microscope has two lenses; one being the objective lenses and the other is the ocular lens.


What is the light function in a microscope?

Light microscopes can magnify objects up to 1000 times their actial size, and they are often used for dissections. Light in the light microscope allows the viewers to see the specimen that is being magnified.


How does the mircoscope work?

The microscope works because of two lenses (ocular and objective). The objective lens magnifies the object and produces a real image. This image is projected to the ocular lens and produces the virtual image, which is the one that the eye views. More specifically, light from substage bounces off a mirror and illuminates the object on the slide being viewed on the stage. The light is then bent into a parallel path and travels through the microscope tube (through the objective lens). Then the light is bent again into a small focus for the eye to view the magnified object through the ocular lenses. Switching the amount the object is magnified by switching the objective lens changes how much the light is bent.

What does the magnification number on the eyepiece mean?

The magnification number is how close the image is magnified. EX: if the image is being magnified by 400x then it will be a more magnified (closer look) at the image then if it was being magnified by 100x

How do you determine the magnifying power of microscope?

There are a number of objectives on the nose piece, usually there are three of them. You can either look at those, to see if they have the magnifying power printed on it, or you can read the instructions, if they came with your microscope. Average microscopes usually have a maximum of 200 or 400x magnifying power. Note: Microscopes have about 3 different magnifying powers. Most are 40x, 100x, and 200 to 400x.


What are the two function ofthe eyepiece?

In biology, the eyepiece in a typical light microscope is used for magnifying the image being viewed (the field of view) by 10 times. Secondly, the eyepiece also has a scale on it which is visible when you look down through the microscope at an image, or at your field of view. This scale has divisions on it which you can use to measure the length of the cellular structures you are looking at. So basically, the eypiece magnifies the image and has a scale on it which you can use to measure the structures in the cell.


What makes something magnify?

the object being magnified is curved and transparent


Which part of an optical microscope contains the magnifying lens?

The body tube of a compound optical microscope contains two lens systems, the objective lens composed of one or several lenses that magnify the image of the object being examined, and the ocular lens at the eyepiece end. The magnification of the microscope depends on the focal lengths of the two lens systems.


How can you tell if an image is magnified?

Images have a certain amount of pixels that create the picture. If the picture seems blurry, in a way that is different than the lens being smudged or movement, then the picture has been magnified. This results because of the pixels being made larger from their actual size.


Function of a eyepiece of a microscope?

The ocular lens, also known as the eyepiece lens, is the part of a compound microscope that a user looks into to see a magnified image. It is a see-through double convex lens curved to cause images to appear larger. It is an essential element to every compound microscope.


What does 150X mean for a microscope?

It means the specimen you are looking at is being magnified 150 times its normal size.


What kind of telescope uses both a reflecting mirror and a refracting lens to produce wide angle photos of the sky?

A reflecting telescope has both magnifying mirrors and lenses to focus the image on the eyepiece. A refracting telescope uses only lenses to magnify and focus. A reflecting telescope can be much smaller, because the light can travel through the barrel of the telescope several times, being magnified with each reflection. This is why most large modern telescopes are reflectors.


What are the different types of lenses of an optical microscope?

The coarsest classification has the ocular or eyepieceand the objective.There are many designs for both these components of microscopes.The objective lens of a microscope is the one at the bottom near the sample. At its simplest it is a very high-powered magnifying glass, with very short focal length. This is brought very close to the specimen being examined so that the light from the specimen comes to a focus inside the microscope tube. The objective itself is usually a cylinder containing one or more lenses that are typically made of glass; its function is to collect light from the sample.An eyepiece consists of several "lens elements" in a housing, with a "barrel" on one end. The barrel is shaped to fit in a special opening of the instrument to which it is attached. The image can be focused by moving the eyepiece nearer and further from the objective. Most instruments have a focusing mechanism to allow movement of the shaft in which the eyepiece is mounted, without needing to manipulate the eyepiece directly.See the related links below.
