The coarse adjustment because it moves the objective much farther than the fine adjustment knob, and you could hit the slide with the objective and damage the lens and/or the slide.

Which objective scanning low power or high power allows you to observe the greatest number of cells within the field of view?

Scanning a specimen using a low-power objective allows you to observe the greatest number of cells within the field of view. Low-power objectives have a lower magnification but a wider field of view compared to high-power objectives, enabling a broader view of the specimen.


Which focusing knob do you never use under high power?

The coarse adjustment knob should never be used when viewing in high power with a compound microscope. When in high power, use the coarse adjustment (the knob smaller than the coarse adj.) to more accurately focus on the subject.


When scanning a microscope slide to find an object would you use low medium or high power why?

You would use low first so you can see where it is and then you would center it and make it on the edge of the pointer. Then go to medium;center the object;go to high; center then your done!!! a 7th grader


Why important to start focusing the lowest power objective?

It is important to start focusing with the lowest power objective because it provides a wider field of view and makes it easier to locate the specimen on the slide. Once the specimen is in focus at low power, you can then switch to higher power objectives for more detailed observation. Focusing at low power first also helps prevent the higher power objectives from coming into contact with the slide and potentially damaging the lens or specimen.


What is low power objective in a microscope?

A low power objective in a microscope is a Small Lens with Low Magnifying Power. A microscope head with two eyepiece lenses, one for each eye. Generally this term is used in describing a high power (compound) microscope. With a low power microscope we say "stereo" head because, unlike the compound microscope, the stereo has a separate objective lens for each eyepiece lens, producing two independent paths of light, one for each eye. In the compound microscope with a binocular head, there are two eyepiece lenses but still only one objective lens and you will not get stereo vision. Hope this helps.

What parts of microscope regulates the low power objectives?

The focusing knobs are used to regulate the low power objectives on a microscope. These knobs help adjust the distance between the specimen and the objective lens to bring it into focus. By turning the focusing knobs, you can achieve a clear image when using low power objectives.


Why are you never to use the adjustment knob with high or medium power?

Using the adjustment knob at high or medium power can damage the lenses or specimen due to the sudden movement of the lens away from the specimen, as the depth of field is significantly reduced at higher magnifications. It is better to focus at low power first to bring the specimen into focus, then switch to higher magnification and use fine focus for adjustment.


Is there a way to store the power of thunder using technology?

No, I have never heard of thunder power.


What setting should the diaphragm be set when using low power?

When using low power objectives, it is best to adjust the diaphragm to a larger aperture to allow more light through the specimen. This will help improve visibility and contrast.


What are the dangers of high power objective?

The field for the high power objective is very small, so if you do not have the organism or whatever you want to view in focus on a lower power, it may be very difficult to find on high power. Also, the lens for the higher power objectives are longer than the lower ones, which makes them closer physically to the slide that you are viewing than the lower objectives. Thus you must use the fine tuning knob to sharpen the image in high power, because you could break the slide if you use the course adjustment knob.

What is the 4 total magnification objectives?

The four total magnification objectives typically found on a microscope include 4x, 10x, 40x, and 100x objectives. These numbers indicate the magnification power of each lens, with the total magnification achieved by multiplying the objective lens power by the eyepiece lens power, usually 10x. For example, using the 40x objective with a 10x eyepiece results in a total magnification of 400x. Each objective serves a specific purpose, allowing for varying levels of detail to be observed in specimens.


When observing a specimen under medium power whick adjustment knob should be used to focus on the image Why?

When observing a specimen under medium power, the fine focus adjustment knob should be used to focus on the image. This is because the medium power objective lens has a shorter working distance than lower power lenses, and using the fine focus prevents potential damage to the slide and ensures a clearer image. The coarse focus knob may move the stage too far, risking contact with the slide.
