The 4x objective is often called the "scan" objective because it is typically used for locating and centering the specimen on the microscope slide due to its low magnification and wide field of view. It allows for a quick scan of the sample before switching to higher magnification objectives for more detailed examination.
10X
What is the value of the smallest objective?If it is 4x,The total magnification = eye piece x objective lens= (10x) x (4x)= 40x
When using a 4x objective lens on a microscope, the total magnification is calculated by multiplying the objective lens magnification by the eyepiece magnification. If the eyepiece (ocular) lens is typically 10x, the total magnification would be 4x (objective) × 10x (eyepiece) = 40x. Therefore, when scanning with a 4x objective, the total magnification will be 40x.
The scanning objective is used to quickly locate and focus on the specimen before switching to higher magnification objectives for detailed imaging. It typically has a low magnification (4x-10x) and a wide field of view to facilitate navigation and initial observations of the sample.
No, a 4x objective lens has a lower magnification than a 10x objective lens. The numbers indicate the level of magnification, so 10x magnifies the specimen more than 4x. Therefore, the 10x lens provides a closer and more detailed view of the specimen compared to the 4x lens.
the scan objective is the shortest objective ,, and has a magnification of 10x
A low power objective is essential on any microscope, It allows you to quickly scan a large area of the specimen, and to locate those areas which need closer study with a high power objective. For example, a histologic section of liver might measure 20 by 40 mm. With a 4x objective you can scan the entire piece of tissue in a minute or less. If there is a 1 mm tumor somewhere in the section, you will find it during this scan, and can them zoom in on it with the high power objectives. Trying to scan the entire slide with a 40x objective would take a long time because in any given field you can see only 1/100 the surface area included in a 4x scan), and you could easily miss a 1 mm tumor entirely. but this didnt helpso hanks aot for nothing

The high-power objective magnifies the image 4x.
The shortest objective on a microscope is typically the scanning objective, which has the lowest magnification power (usually around 4x). This objective is used to locate and focus on the specimen before switching to higher magnification objectives for detailed viewing.

Magnifying an image allows for easier investigation and viewing capabilities. Images which are under a 10X objective magnification and 6 times larger than an image which is under a 4X magnification.
