Why don't micorscope makers use 100x ocular lenses?
It would depend on the microscope, however, there are usually 3 different powered objective lenses on a light microscope, the lowest being of 10x magnification, the middle being of 40/45x magnification, and the highest being of 100x magnification.
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.
200 You find the answer by multiplying the objective and ocular together!(: I had this question on my Bio final.
10X
please help i need this question answered I believe a bi-convex lens, that is, a lens with an outward curve on both surfaces, would provide the greatest magnification in a simple (single) lens system.
Multiply the magnification of the ocular and objective lenses. For an example, an ocular lense with mag 10X and an objective lense with mag 40X would result in a total magnification of 400X.

I assume you mean the lenses. They're the 10x, 40x, 100x etc. They're the things you turn to see the slide better
That depends on the type of microscope you are using, so check the lab you work or go to school in. At my lab, our microscopes have 4x, 10x, 40x, 100x magnification lenses.
Arm = supports top part of microscope Base = the part the microscope stands on Lens turret= a rotating support for the objective lenses objective lens or lenses are those closest to the object being viewed. Their degree of magnification is usually marked on the side of the lens, eg. 100x magnifies the object 100 times. The longer the lens, the greater its magnifying power. Eyepiece (or ocular lens) = This is the lens closest to the eye and its magnifying power is generally marked on the side. To determine the total magnifying power of a compound microscope, multiply the power of the ocular lens with the power of the objective lens. For example, a 10x ocular with a 100x objective would give a total magnification of 1000. A microscope may also have a binocular eyepiece with a lens for each eye. Stage Clip= holds the glass slide which contains a specimen to be viewed. Stage- holds the specimen. Coarse adjustment knob- makes large adjustments to the focus of the lenses. Fine adustment knob- makes small adjustments to the focus of the lenses Below the stage is located either a mirror or an electric light which directs light through the specimen on the stage.

10X
...LPO is the 100x power...
1000

40x , 100x , 400x
