How can you tell by just looking at them which is the low power objective or high power objective?

The low power objective typically has a lower magnification level (e.g., 4x or 10x) compared to the high power objective (e.g., 40x or 100x), and it usually has a wider field of view. The high power objective will provide a closer magnified view of the specimen but with a narrower field of view. You can often find the magnification level labeled on the side of the objectives.


What does 10X25 means with binoculars?

Usually the first number is the magnification (in this case 30X) and if it has a zoom from 10X to 30X it would look like 10 - 30X25. The second number is the objective diameter (in mm) of the binocular. The larger the diameter usually means more light is let in and more field of view. 8X42 for example has an 8 times magnification with an objective diameter of 42mm for each side (each monocular). The DCF is a way of describing a roof shape of the internal prism binocular. It means "Dach Centre Focus" (Dach is German for roof).


The parts and functions of the parts of a microscope?

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.


Why would you always use the low-power objective lens to locate objects mounted on the slide first even if you want to observe them with the high power objective lens?

because it allows you to find the part of the slide you want to see, then you can zoom in by changing focus to see the frame in greater detail. if you don't start in low power it is extremely difficult to move around the slide


Why is 7x50 better than 7x35 binoculars?

The 7 is the magnification produced - it is a ratio of the focal lengths of the lens at the eyepiece and the front (objective) lens. The 50 is width of the objective lens - in millimetres.

Why should you watch the objective lens from the side when changing the magnification?

Sometimes, if the stage is set high enough, the objective lens can hit or scratch the slide when it's changed, because each objective lens is a different length. From the back of the microscope, you cannot see if the lens is going to hit the slide or not, and run the risk of disturbing your sample. This problem can be prevented by looking from the side and stopping if it looks like the lens is going to hit the slide.


Why should you watch from the side before you lower the objective of your microscope?

Sometimes, if the stage is set high enough, the objective lens can hit or scratch the slide when it's changed, because each objective lens is a different length. From the back of the microscope, you cannot see if the lens is going to hit the slide or not, and run the risk of disturbing your sample. This problem can be prevented by looking from the side and stopping if it looks like the lens is going to hit the slide. Watching from the side also helps to know if it is too low, or just in the right distance.

Why should you always have to look at a microscope from side when moving an objective?

Looking at a microscope from the side when moving an objective helps prevent accidentally crashing the objective lens into the slide, which can damage both the lens and the slide. It also allows you to have a better view of the distance between the objective lens and the slide, ensuring smooth and precise movement without causing any harm.

Where can I find the serial number location on a Tamron lens?

The serial number on a Tamron lens is typically located on the side of the lens barrel near the mount. It is usually engraved or printed on a sticker.

Why do you have to look at the microscope from the side when moving an object?

Looking at the microscope from the side when moving an object helps to keep the object in focus. This allows you to clearly see the movements and make precise adjustments to bring the object into view. Viewing from the side also helps prevent accidental contact with the objective lens, which could damage the specimen or the lens.


Why is it important to look at the microscope form the side while lowering the body tube with the coarse adjustment knob?

Many light microscopes will smash the slide when the coarse knob is adjusted so as to bring the objective lens downward. This is most possible when using the highest power objective but could be a problem even with low power if a thick slide (double slide instead of a cover slip) is on the stage.


What part of the microscope maintains the correct distance between the eyepiece and the objective lens?

The focusing mechanism maintains the correct distance between the eyepiece and the objective lens in a microscope. This mechanism allows users to adjust the distance to achieve a sharp and clear image of the specimen under observation.
