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.


Which objective would be better to use when using a scanning slide?

Might add extra, but i really hope this helps! scanning objective - for locating the specimen on the slide (= low power objective) high power objective - magnifies the specimen to provide a detailed image coarse adjustment - used to focus the image when using low power diaphragm - used to adjust the amount of light passing through the specimen revolving nosepiece - holds the three objective lenses - it can be rotated to change the objective in use arm - holds the stage and the lens system - can be used to tilt the microscope (but not advised) substaGe lamp - provides a uniform illumination (more reliable than daylight !!)


Why should you use the fine focus knob only when working with the 40x objective lens?

You should have already used the Coarse adjustment on 10x so when you switch to 40x, all you need to do is fine adjust it. Plus, you don't want to break it by turning the Coarse up all the way.


What is objective power?

The longest objective that is usually used the least. The opposite of a low power objective.


What is the maximum magnification of the dark-field microscope?

Most go up to 1000x as it is light field microscopy. The ocular lens (the one that you look into) is 10x, but there are different objectives to focus on the specimen that you rotate to chose. The lowest is usually 4x, then 10x, 40x, and then 100x. Multiply ocular lens (10x) X objective lens you are using (ex: 40x) = Total 400x Oil immersion drop is used ONLY on the 100x objective.

What is coarse focus used for?

Coarse focus on a microscope is used only when you are using the lowest objective lens. You use it to get the object magnified mostly. The fine focus is then used to adjust the resolution to the viewer's eyesight.


What are the steps used to focus a microscope on high power?

First focus the microscope on the lowest objective using first the coarse djustment knob and then the fine adjustment knob. Once you have it in focus, move on and do the same for the next highest objective. Continue this process until you reach the highest objective and focus it in the same fashion.

What objective should be used for initial focusing explain?

Scanner or 4x objective. This is to not confuse our eyes on the magnification that we will see.

Which objective should the coarse focus knob be used?

The coarse adjustment knob is only used with the low-power objective lens (usually 4x) because all the other ones are too long and the coarse adjustment knob may bring the slide up too qucikly, therefore it might break the slide or crush the specimen being observed. When using the medium (10x) and high (40x) power objective lens, it is best to use the fine adjustment knob to focus on the details instead.


When should the high power objective be used?

When a very close view of the specimen is necessary. You can focus in on one part of the specimen.


In one sentence is truth objective or subjective?

Truth or reality is objective, and you can not discover an objective reality using subjective means. For example, If wanted to know a rich man's name, you would not say or ask, "what is like being rich?" that would give you a different subjective answer rather than the objective answer your looking for. Using a subjective question to get an objective answer is impossible.Truth is objective and can be held against reality. It is the means used to discover reality that is subjective.
