What part reflects the microscope light?
Mirror - It is used to reflect light through the object and lenses of the eye.
When do you use the plane and concave sides of the mirror of a microscope?
Plane Mirror - are standard, flat mirrors, produce images of the same size and distance as the objects they reflect Concave Mirror - Used to focus light, they reflect it inward toward one focal point. Concave mirrors show different types of images, depending on the distance between the mirror and the object reflected. Concave mirrors are used quite frequently in day-to-day life
What is the part of yhe microscope used to deflect light into the microscope?
There is usually a tiltable mirror underneath where the specimen is placed, A small lamp shines on the mirror and the beam is directed upwards. In some microscopes an upward shining lamp takes the place of a mirror.
What are the uses of convex and concave mirrors?
A convex mirror is used for:- A spotlight..... the light in right in the middle and the convex mirror is behind it so the light that shines back ward's hits the mirror and reflect's back and bends into a focal point. A concave mirror is used for:- Dentist mirror.... to magnify a potion's teeth. They are also used in car light's but is very hard to explain. The first answer above relates to a concave mirror.
Why is a concave mirror used in microscopes instead of convex lenses?
To focus AND reflect light through the specimen slide to the lenses.

What is the function of the mirror in a microscopes?
You adjust the mirror to get more light onto the specimen.If your microscope has a mirror, it is used to reflect light from an external light source up through the bottom of the stage.
What types of microscope do scientist use?
compound and light microscopes are used in some labs compound uses a mirror to reflect and a light gives a light source to it
What is a lamp on a microscope?
A steady light source used in place of a mirror. it is used to reflect light from an external light source up through the bottom of the stage
Why is a satellite used to reflect light?
Because it is like a mirror and it can be used to reflect light
Why plane mirror can be used for decorative purpose?
to check our selves used in base of microscope used in vehicles to make telescope and kaledoscope
What is the use of mirror to microscope?
A compound microscope can either have a light bulb or a mirror for illumination. If your microscope has a mirror, then you need sunlight or some other light source to point at the mirror to view your slide.The mirror is used to focus light up through the hole in the microscope's stage, or slide platform. The slides will contain a thin slice of material through which the light can shine, to reveal the internal structure of the sample.=========================================Mirrors on the exterior of microscopes are there to reflect ambient light (especially sunlight) under the slide being viewed to illuminate it. These are necessary for microscopes that don't have their own light sources.Mirrors in the interior of the microscope are there to redirect the optics and make the microscope more compact or to facilitate making the microscope binocular.

Which surface of the mirror is usually used to reflect light?
I would have to say the prism
