Best Answer

The coarse adjustment knob may move the lens too far too fast and the slide may crack and/or the object be squashed. Using the fine adjustment lens will bring the object into focus much more accurately. In addition, the coarse adjustment knob adjusts in too great a quantity. The fine is less responsive so its easier to adjust at high magnification.

You can easily crush the cover and the slide under it.

If you do use the coarse adjustment, you can very easily crush the slide cover, the slide or even damage the lens.

An energy source that won't ever run out is called?

An energy source that never runs out would be called: Impossible. There is no such thing as an energy source that will never run out otherwise it would break the Laws of Thermodynamics and we would all be in big trouble. Renewable energy sources are based on things like wind power, solar power which we expect will last longer than the human species.


What would happen if A nuclear Power plant was struck with a Nuclear bomb?

AnswerThere would be a gigantic explosion AnswerThe force of the actual explosion would depend entirely on the bomb. The material in the power plant would almost certainly not contribute to the force of the explosion in any way. Nuclear explosions are not merely a matter of achieving critical mass; the critical mass has to be maintained while the explosion takes place, which is not easy. The environmental damage done by the bomb would probably be worse than if it had gone off in some other place, because the radioactive material at the power plant would be scattered to some unpredictable extent.Nuclear power plants are never, or nearly never, built in cities because of the possibility of accident. A nuclear bomb hitting a nuclear power plant would possibly cause fewer fatalities than a bomb hitting a city.


How much energy does the energy drink rockstar have?

well i would have to say it has more than monster and the 5 power energy shots coarse most of the energy you get last you about an hour or less but rockstars have more energy than most energy drinks


Why do you need nuclear power plants?

You have to have power plants because without them we would not have enough power =)

What is the name of the adjustment knob that moves the body tube for focusing with the high-power objective lens?

I assume you would use the fine adjustment knob for high power objectives.


What part of the microscope should you used to focus the image when using high power objective lens?

First of all, one should never call it high power, it is morecommonly called the "high objective", yet that is not what this question is asking. To answer the question: You use the fine adjustment knob. This knob should be located near the coarse adjustment knob, on the opposite side of the microscope (at the same height as the coarse adjustment knob), or even as a separate knob protruding from the coarse adjustment knob. The fine adjustment knob is smaller in size. You should never, ever use the coarse adjustment knob under the high objective, you could scratch the microscope slide, cover slip, high objective lens, or in a worst case scenario break the high objective lens.


What would happen if you tried to use a coarse adjustment knob at the highest magnification?

What is the function of the fine adjustment knob?

Assuming that you were talking about a microscope, then . . . the fine adjustment is really the normal adjustment. It's easy to use to get a great focus because it moves the focusing mechanism very little per turn. On the other hand, the fine adjustment simply won't get you close to initial focus without spending a day or two turning the dern thing. On the other hand, the COARSE focusing knob will get you NEARLY to correct focus in a flash.


Which part of a light microscope would most likely be damaged if the coarse adjustment is improperly used while a specimen is being observed under high power?

The high powered lens could be damaged. Also, the slide can be broken.


When using the high power objective which focus knob do you use?

The fine adjustment knob is used with the power objective on the microscope. Since the objective is already at the highest objective possible for that microscope, using the coarse adjustment knob would focus to much on the object making the details harder to read. Using the fine adjustment knob, you are able to see the fine details within the object or organism you are studying. The higher the power, the finer the knob and the lower the objective, the coarser the knob and objective.
