What lens of a compound microscope is closest to the object being examined?
The 'object lens' in a compound microscope is closest to the object being examined.
What does a mirror do on a compound light microscope?
You use it to see the object on your slide on a compound microscope. Point a flashlight at the mirror to see.
What is a microscope lens placed directly above the specimen?
The microscope has two systems of lenses: the ocular lens into which the observer looks; and objective lenses placed directly above the object being observed.
What do the lenses on a microscope do to the light as it passes through them - and how does this affect the way an object appears when the light reaches your eye?
The lenses in a microscope diffract (bend) the light as it passes through them. The effect is that an object appears clear and large (is focused and magnified) when the light reaches your eye. Also, microscope designs usually ensure that the object appears right-side-up.
What is the difference between compound microscope and dissecting microscope?
In compound microscope are usually able to magnify an object by 400 times.while dissecting microscope usually only magnify an object by 40 times or less. In compound microscope are used to view very small, relatively thin things, such as cells. In dissecting microscope are used to look at larger objects that have a greater degree of depth such as grains of pollen. In compound microscope is always made with 1 eyepiece. On the other hand dissecting microscope is always made with 2 eyepiece.
How does a compound microscope use lenses to magnify an object?
the optical microscope is a type of microscope that uses visibal light and a system of lenses to magnify images of small samples
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.
What is a microscope called using two lenses?
It is a compound microscope because it has more one lens between the object and eye of the viewer.
What is an instrument that allows light to pass through the specimen and uses two lens to from an image called?
The answer you are looking for is called a dissecting or stereo microscope. These provide a lower magnification range in comparison to compound microscopes and they use two sets of lenses, the eyepiece and the objective lenses. these then provide a 3D image.
Describe compound microscope with ray diagram?
a compound microscope is the combination of two convex lenses the objective and the eyepiece. this lens with a small focal lenth this lens is placed close to the object
Magnifies by allowing light to pass through an object and then through two or more lenses?
a compound light microscope
How is a stereo microscope different from a compound microscope?
Compound microscope - a microscope which uses multiple lenses to collect light from the sample, and then a separate set of lenses to focus the light into the eye or camera. It shines a light from beneath the stage, going up through the object being examined.Stereo microscope - a microscope designed for low magnification observation of an opaque object. It shines a light onto the object, rather than shining it up through the object. It uses two separate optical paths with two objectives and two eyepieces to provide slightly different viewing angles to the left and right eyes. This produces a three-dimensional visualization of the object.
What lens of a compound microscope is closest to the object being examined?
The 'object lens' in a compound microscope is closest to the object being examined.
What lens of the compound microscope is closest to the object being examined?
The 'object lens' in a compound microscope is closest to the object being examined.
Where can the object not be seen at the point of a converging lens?
According to the Physics Classroom, "When the object is located at the focal point, no image is formed."http://www.physicsclassroom.com/class/refrn/Lesson-5/Converging-Lenses-Object-Image-Relations
What is the difference between a compound microscope and an electron microscope?
Compound microscopes (also called compound light microscopes) employ light and an array of glass lenses to magnify an object. (This is distinguished from a simple microscope of one lens.) An electron microscope uses a beam of electrons to magnify an object. The lensing system employs electric and magnetic fields and is specialized for applications requiring much higher magnification.

How do the lenses of a microscope make an object look larger?
Refraction
