The nosepiece of a microscope holds multiple objective lenses, each with different magnification levels that range from high to low power. Rotating the nosepiece allows you to switch between these objective lenses to adjust the magnification of your specimen.
Example: 4 = Low Power 10 = Med. Power 40 = High Power 100 = Eyepiece Low Power x Eyepiece = 40x Med. Power x Eyepiece = 100x High Power x Eyepiece = 400x
When working with a microscope you should always take procauctions but one question I am asked a lot is When working with a microscope do you open or close the diaphram when working with the medium- and high-power objective nobs? The answer is you keep it open if you don't you won't be abler to see any thing.
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.
The coarse adjustment knob on a microscope should never be used with the high-power objective lens. This can cause damage to both the lens and the slide being viewed. Instead, it is best used with the low-power or scanning objective lens for initial focusing.
The high power objective on a compound microscope typically has a magnifying power of 40x or 50x.

The high-power objective magnifies the image 4x.
A high power objective in a microscope is a lens that provides high magnification of the specimen being viewed. It typically magnifies the image by 40x to 100x, allowing for detailed observation of fine structures. High power objectives are used for examining smaller details and are typically used after lower magnification objectives.

The nucleus of the cheek cell would most likely be visible when viewed through the high-power objective of a compound microscope. It is usually one of the larger and more prominent structures within the cell and can be stained to enhance visibility.
Low power (4x), medium power (10x), and high power (40x) are the three magnifications typically found on a compound microscope's objective lenses.
you multyply the low powered objective and the high powered objective :)
The medium power objective in a microscope is used for observing specimens at a higher magnification than the low power objective, but not as detailed as the high power objective. It is commonly used to examine finer details of a specimen while still maintaining a wider field of view than the high power objective.
The smallest objective on a microscope is called the high-power objective lens. It typically has a magnification power of 40x or higher, allowing for detailed examination of specimens.
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.
