What do you call a microscope that has more than one lens?
A microscope that has more than one lens is a compound microscope
Does a microscope have more than 1 lens?
Yes they can have different magnification.
How did the compound light microscope get its name?
it uses light to help you see the object and it has more than on lensIt uses light to see, and it is compound because it uses more than 1 lens.
What would be the result of cleaning the lenses with something other than lens paper on a microscope?
You could cause scratches, more dust, and make smudges.
What is a microscope with more than one lenses?
compound
What is the role of lenses used in cameras telescopes and microscopes?
In a simple microscope, a lens magnifies the image of the sample. in a compound microscope, the objective lens magnifies the image (there may be more than one objective lens) and the eyepiece lens enlarges the virtual image (which is typically inverted by the objective lens).
How can you tell by just looking at them which is the low power objective or high power objective?
On a typical light microscope, the low power objective lens will be shorter than the high power objective lens.
How is the total magnification of a microscope determined?
Total magnification is determined by multiplying the magnification of the ocular lens by that of the objective lens. Compound microscope that uses more than one lens to direct light through a specimen mounted on a glass slide.
What do you call a microscope that has more than one lens?
A microscope that has more than one lens is a compound microscope
Why the objective lens of a refracting telescope is much larger than the objective lens of a compound microscope?
A telescope must grasp the light from enormous distances. A microscope's task is to refine tiny images at very close distances.
What is An advantage of a compound light microscope over a single lens microscope?
A compound light microscope is able to provide more clarity and detail than a single lens microscope, which is its advantage. Compound refers to the microscope having more than one lens.
How was the compound microscope different from leeuwenhoeks?
Compound microscopes have more than one lens. The first (objective) lens magnifies the object to produce an image. Subsequent lenses magnify an image produced by a previous lens. Leeuwenhoek's "microscope" had only one lens -- simple magnification only. ~The Undertaker~
How was the first compound microscope different from Antony Van Leeuwenhoek microscope?

what do you call a microscope with more than one lens?
Compound microscope.
Why is the light microscope described as a compound microscope?
it is made up of more than one lens. A simple microscope is make up of one lens. A compound or light microscope has more than one.
Why is it better to focus the microscope upward rather than downward?
When focusing the microscope downward, you take the chance of damaging the expensive objective lens by crushing the slide trying to get it in focus. By first eyeballing the objective lens and adjusting it very close to the slide, and then moving the objective lens up for the correct focus you're safe.
Type of a microscope made up of two or more lenses?
If a microscope has more than one lens, it is called a compound microscope.
