What is the depth of field on a microscope?
Depth of field is the depth of the specimen clearly in focus and is greater at lower magnifications.
What happens to the depth of field as the magnification increases?
As the magnification increases, the depth of field decreases.
What is depth of field best demonstrated with?
Depth of field is best demonstrated with a slide containing overlapping threads. The depth of field that would increase is the low power objective.
The greatest known depth which lies in pacific ocean is?
The greatest known depth which lies in the Pacific Ocean is the Mariana Trench which has a depth of 35,797 ft/10,911 meters.
Is the depth of field on a dissecting microscope less than the depth of field on a compound microscope?
No its actually the opposite
Does the depth of field increase or decrease when one moves to a higher magnification on a microscope?
The depth of field decreases.
Why should you use the scanning objective to find objects first?
Try it any other way and you'll see. The scanning objective has the largest field of view, the greatest depth of field, and the greatest working distance. It is the most forgiving objective. It is the easiest to find the specimen and focus on it.
What happend to the depth of field if magnification increases?
The higher the magnification the lower the depth of field.
Which seaweed lives at the greatest depth?
Red
Which ocean has the greatest average depth?
The Pacific
What happens to the depth of field as your move from low power to high power?
Depth of field decreases from low to high. This means what you see under the microscope is blurry. If both objects are not blurry, this means you have high depth-of-field.
What is the difference between maximum depth of field and shallow depth of field on a camera?
Depth of field in photography is 3-dimensional and is measured from the foreground moving along a horizontal plane towards the background. Maximum depth-of-field means most of the scene is in focus and shallow depth-of-field means the minimum is in focus. Shallow depth-of-field lets you lose the background into a nice blur leaving the foreground in focus - good for portrait photography. In landscape photography you would normally choose the maximum depth-of-field so that distant hills were in focus as well as the middle ground and the foreground - in other words, everything in the field of your vision would be sharply focussed.
