What is the function of the medium power objective in the compound microscope?

Medium power objective gives the medium (as oppose to large or small), field of vision and the greatest depth of field. When you move the lens' position (CLose or far from the slide) it would be the middle. Read the textbook it will be of more benefit; or look it up on the internet you are on anyways. Type [edu] with brackets for a page of more scholarly links (if their domain is .edu).


High power on microscope?

On a the microscope I use, the ocular (eyepiece) has a magnification power of 10x. The 'low' (or 'scanning') objective lens is 4x, the 'medium' has a power of 10x, and the 'high' has a power of 40x. Multiply the ocular by the lens you're using to get your 'total magnification.' TIP: Only use the coarse adjustment knob while on 'low' power, then use the fine adjustment. Why? If you use the coarse adjustment knob on 'medium' or 'high,' there's a good chance you'll crack your slide. -BugCrunch

The power of a microscope magnification is the eye piece power times the objective lens so 10X eye piece times 10X objective is 100 power Common eyepieces are 10x 15x, 20X. The limit is about 2000X in an excellent unit. Average practical use is about 1000X to 1400X In expensive scopes the higher power objective lenes as 100X are made from oil not glass.
