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
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.
working distance
When looking through a microscope, if you move the slide left, the image will move right, and vice versa.
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.
Because during movement of lens there is no slide below objective .
as we move the slide to the left,the image will goes to the right..
when we move the slide away from us,the image will move towards us..

It gets blurry and smaller
it will move right direction
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.
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 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.
you will see it go left
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.
so the objective lens will not touch the slide.
