What does resolving power of a microscope mean?
its ability to distinguish two items at its highest magnification
What is the highest possible magnification that can be obtained when using a microscope?
Objective - Ocular 40 x 10 = 4000x
What two parts of the microscope increases magnification?
The objective and the diaphragm are the parts that increase magnification on a microscope.
What is the definition of power of magnification?
the magnification power of a microscope
What type of microscope has the lowest magnification?
early light microscope
What type of microscope achieves the highest magnification and greatest resolution?
Electron microscope.Transition microscope has a magnification of *500,000 and resolution of 0.5nm.
The magnification and resolution capabilities are highest in the?
The Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) has the highest magnification and resolution of all microscopes.
How many objective lenses are on the microscope?
It would depend on the microscope, however, there are usually 3 different powered objective lenses on a light microscope, the lowest being of 10x magnification, the middle being of 40/45x magnification, and the highest being of 100x magnification.
What are the highest magnification microscope generally used to study cells?
1o,ooo times with a transmission electron microscope
What is the magnification of the eyepiece on a microscope?
To determine the magnification of the eyepiece on a microscope take the total magnification for the microscope and divide it by the total magnification of the objective lens. The answer is what the magnification is for the eyepiece.
What does resolving power of a microscope mean?
its ability to distinguish two items at its highest magnification
What microscope gives the highest amount of magnification?
The electron microscope that allows you to magnify down to a micrometer I believe.
What is the highest magnification that can be obtained witha microscope that has 10x eyepiece with 10x and 43x objectives?
4300x
What limits the useful magnification of a compound microscope?
Several things do: 1) what magnification the ocular is (usually 10x) and the highest magnification of the objectives (usually 100x), giving you a total mag of 1000x 2) resolution, which in turn is affected by numerical aperture
What is the highest possible magnification that can be obtained when using a microscope?
Objective - Ocular 40 x 10 = 4000x
Eyepiece that magnifies the specimen 10X?
The highest magnification that can be obtained from a microscope depends on the objective (main lens) of the microscope and has no bearing on the magnification of the eye piece. A 10X eyepiece can only add to the magnification but cannot provide any further information.
If a microscope lens has a magnification of 15 and another has a magnification of 40 what is the total magnification of the microscope?
it would be 15 times 40 which is 600 times magnification
