You will see more of an object on low power.

Why is locating an object more difficult if you start with a high power on the microscope?

When using a microscope, you are magnifying the area under the lens by however many times the magnification is on your lens. On low power the area expanded by the lens is smaller than on high magnification. When on low power more is visible and there is less area to search for your given object under the microscope. I recommend finding the object on low magnification, and then switching to high once you have found it.


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 must initial focusing of an object be under the low power objective and not under the high power objective?

Low power objective is like our eye if we want to see we can just see normally but if we want to see something very small but want to see properly at that particular part then we always go for some lens of something powerful. That's the same thing when we want to know something deeply we go for high power microscope to read a more detailed study of a particular part of object under the microscope.


What does the medium power objective do on a microscope?

its is good and magnifies mediumly


Which objective would you use to initially locate the specimen high or low power objective?

low-power because there's more of a field of depth where you can see more rather then in the high power you can't see as much and only one object will be in focus while everything else would be blurry in the background (if there's more then one thing in the slide)

Which power will allow you to see more the object?

Increasing the resolution or magnification of the optical instrument, such as a microscope or telescope, will allow you to see more details of the object.


Why is locating an object more difficult if you start with the high power object rather than the low power?

b/c the high power only allows you to see a small portion of thee slide. where as the low power pretty much allows you to see the whole slide all at once.


When looking through a microscope what power are you on when the object is smaller but you are able to see more detail?

high power

Why is locating an object more difficult if you start with the high-power objective rather than the low-power objective?

With a high power objective you see less sky and might not know where you are looking. With a low power objective you see more and it is possible to orient yourself among the objects in view.


What does an object with a high temperature have more than an object with a lower temperature?

An object with a high temperature has more thermal energy than an object with a lower temperature. This means that the particles in the object with higher temperature are vibrating and moving more vigorously compared to those in the object with lower temperature.

Why is locating an object more difficult if you start with the high-power objective rather than the low power obejctive exspically the brightness whats up with that?

The reason it is more difficult is that the 'field of view' is much smaller, the higher the objective power. In other words, you don't have to be so exactly 'on target' with a lower objective power, as the field of view is larger in proportion to the object being viewed, so the object can be farther off to one side or the other, and still be seen. Once found in the lower power field, center the object in the field and then switch to the higher power- the object should then be in the higher power field of view. This is true for microscopes and telescopes, as well as any instrument that magnifies at different powers of magnification.
