How does the procedure for using the microscope differ under high power as opposed to low power?
use the fine adjustment knob to get a better view of what you are looking at.For low power you can use the coarse adjustment and fine adjustmentfor high power you should only use the fine adjustment because on high power, the objective lens is too close to the slide and using the coarse adjustment may scratch the objective lens.
When should you always use the fine adjustment on a microscope?
You should always use the fine adjustment on a microscope when you are focusing on high-power magnifications, typically 400x and above. The fine adjustment allows for precise focusing, which is crucial for observing details without risking damage to the slide or the lens. It is also recommended to use the fine adjustment after initially focusing with the coarse adjustment to enhance clarity.
What is the correct microscope procedures?
Which of the following is a correct procedure for the operation of a microscope? First, put the specimen into focus using a low power lens, then switch to a lower power lens if needed.Remove and add slides while the high power lens is selected.First, put the specimen into focus using a low power lens, then switch to a higher power lens if needed.Use the fine focus knob with the low power lens and use the coarse focus knob with the high power lens
What is the diameter of the high power field of a microscope in micrometers?
the diameter of the high power field microscope is 500 micrometers
What are precautions to take when using high-power lens on microscope?
the high power lens uses a lot of light scorce so it could burn your eyes
Which microscope knob do you not use on high power?
You do not use the coarse focus knob on high power because it can damage the slide and the objective lens of the microscope. Use only the fine focus knob to bring the specimen into sharp focus on high power.
6 How does the procedure for using the microscope differ under high power?
For low power you can use the coarse adjustment and fine adjustment for high power you should only use the fine adjustment because on high power, the objective lens is too close to the slide and using the coarse adjustment may scratch the objective lens.
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.

What adjustment knob is used to focus with high power?
The fine adjustment knob is typically used to focus when using high power magnification on a microscope. It allows for precision adjustments to fine-tune the focus of the specimen being observed.
Which part of a microscope should be used with the low power objective but not with the high power objective?
The coarse focus knob should be used with the low power objective but not with the high power objective. The point of using the coarse focus knob is to bring the specimen into general focus before fine-tuning with the high power objective, which requires more precise adjustments.
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.
Why should you never use the coarse adjustment knob on high power for a microscope?
Using the coarse adjustment knob on high power can potentially damage the microscope or the slide being observed due to the high magnification and close proximity of the objective lens to the slide. It is better to make coarse adjustments on low power to avoid hitting the objective lens against the slide.
What is the function of coarse focus adjustment knob on the microscope?
The coarse focus adjustment knob is used to move the objective lens closer to or further away from the specimen in large increments, allowing for quick focusing at a general level. This adjustment is typically used initially to bring the specimen into view before fine-tuning the focus with the fine focus knob.
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.
Where on the microscope is the fine adjustment knob?
The fine adjustment knob on a microscope is typically located on one side of the base near the coarse adjustment knob. It is used to make precise focusing adjustments when viewing a specimen under high magnification.
