Why would you always use the low-power objective lens to locate objects mounted on the slide first even if you want to observe them with the high power objective lens?

because it allows you to find the part of the slide you want to see, then you can zoom in by changing focus to see the frame in greater detail. if you don't start in low power it is extremely difficult to move around the slide


How would you move a microscope slides on the stage in order to bring a specimen in the upper righ-hand?

You would move the slide to the left. Remember, the image you see is reversed and flipped. That means that if your organism is moving from right to left when you look under the microscope, that the actual organism on the slide is moving from left to right. Going off of that logic, if the REAL organism on the REAL slide is moving from left to right, than you would have to move the actual slide to the left in order to place right hand side of the slide (where the organism just moved) back into your view. This would reflect in what you see under the microscope as well since you put the real organism back into view.as a handy rule of thumb, when using a compound light microscope, pull the slide in the direction that the organism is moving out of view in to keep them in sight.


What is the Distance from the bottom of the objective lens to the surface of the slide?

working distance


Where does an image go when you move the slide to the right on a compound microscope?

When looking through a microscope, if you move the slide left, the image will move right, and vice versa.


What will happen when high power objective is used with water instead of oil?

When a microscope is used with a very high magnification objective the image can be spoiled by the number of refractions as light goes from one medium to another (glass to air, for example). In order to help this a drop of special oil is placed on the slide cover slip and the bottom of the objective lens dips into the oil. The oil has the same refractive index as the glass used in cover slips and the bottom lens in the objective so there is no refraction as the light passes from glass to oil and back to glass. The objective is designed to give the best image with the oil. The refractive index of water is not the same as that of the oil, so the correction would not be right and the objective would not give the best possible image. I would also be a little wary of using water in case it damages the objective. It may be oil-proof, but that doesn't guarantee it is waterproof.this will lead to poor focusing.

What are the change involved when view the prepared slide under microscope using different objective lens?

it has to do with the resolution of the image of the slide obtained...the larger the objective lens value is the greater the resolution it will provide, greater the resolution higher the details.


Why shouldnt the microscope be focused by moving the objectives and the slide closer together?

A microscope should not be focused by moving the objectives and the slide closer together because it will affect the working distance. It is the optimal distance between objective lens and the upper surface of the slide.


When looking down a microscope what happens when you move the slide to the left?

When you move the slide to the left, you will see the image go right when looking in the eyepiece. This is because everything is backwards in the microscope image.


What happens to the image seen in a monocular microscope when the slide is moved to the right?

you will see it go left


Why is it better to focus the microscope upward rather than downward?

When focusing the microscope downward, you take the chance of damaging the expensive objective lens by crushing the slide trying to get it in focus. By first eyeballing the objective lens and adjusting it very close to the slide, and then moving the objective lens up for the correct focus you're safe.


Why should you look to the slide before you lower the objective of your microscope?

so the objective lens will not touch the slide.
