Magnification is a detailed process, so it matters depending on what you are trying to see. Take this for an example: if you want to look at salt close up, you normally would use a low microscope, but if you want to look at it closer, you take a larger magnification.

Why is magnification important in science?
Magnification is important in science because it allows for the direct observation of processes that are invisible to the naked eye.
How do you determine the total magnification on a light microscope?
Multiply the magnification of the eyepiece (usually 10x) and the magnification of the objective you are using, Example: eyepiece = 10 x objective lense = 40x 10 x 40 = 400 magnification of 400x.
Pros and cons of using compound microscope?
it has light limited magnification
What are the proper techniques of using a microscope?
put the slide on the platform, start with lowest magnification, gradually adjust the fine adjust knob until image appears clearly. then, keep switching to higher magnification powers.
What is the name of the magnification without resolution?
Empty Magnification
Why is it important to start with a low magnification when using the microscope?
So you can determine the actual size of what you are looking at.
What magnification would you get by using the eyepiece ofx5 magnification with an objective lence of x10 magnification?
its really good question that i know!!!by ur momma
What is the increase of an objects apparent size by using lenses or mirrors?
magnification
Which concern is the LEAST important when using a compound light microscope to view a sample of paramecia?
having sufficient magnification available.
Why is magnification important in science?
Magnification is important in science because it allows for the direct observation of processes that are invisible to the naked eye.
What is the total magnification if you view an object using a 40x objective lens and the eyepiece of the microscope is at 5x magnifying power?
The total magnification would be 200x, since the total magnification is the magnification of the objective lens X the magnification of the eyepiece.
The total magnification achieved when using a 100x oil immersion lens with a 10x binocular eyepiece is?
1000X magnification
Why is it important to record magnification used when drawing cells seen using a microscope?
because cells were unable to be seen without the aid of an electron microscope
Is there an upper limit to magnification using visible light?
Yes, the wavelength of the light limits the maximum magnification of a microscope. Using visible light, the limit is about 1200 to 1500X.
How do you determine the total magnification on a light microscope?
Multiply the magnification of the eyepiece (usually 10x) and the magnification of the objective you are using, Example: eyepiece = 10 x objective lense = 40x 10 x 40 = 400 magnification of 400x.
What is the magnification of a microscope with an ocular eye piece of 10X and an objective of 50X?
The total magnification would be 500x...you take the ocular and multiply it by whatever objective you are using.
What are the rules for a biological drawing IN MAGNIFICATION?
i ont know
