A light microscope creates a magnified image through a series of lenses. The light rays reflected from the viewed abject, pass through these many lenses and form an enlarged picture of the object. It is able to show the fine details of the object that most people are studying or looking for.

Which lens of a microscope is responsible for producing a magnified image on the inside of the microscope that is not seen directly by the person using the microscope?

The objective lens is responsible for producing a magnified image on the inside of the microscope. This image is then further magnified by the eyepiece lens before it reaches the eyes of the person using the microscope.


Light microscopes use beams of electrons to produce magnified images?

No, a light microscope uses focused light (photons) to produce a magnified image. An electron microscope uses beams of electrons to create a magnified image.


What does the magnification number on the eyepiece mean?

The magnification number is how close the image is magnified. EX: if the image is being magnified by 400x then it will be a more magnified (closer look) at the image then if it was being magnified by 100x


What does an electron microscope use to produce a magnified image?

a ray of light


What produces an image of a specimen by passing visible light through it?

A light microscope produces an image of a specimen by passing visible light through it. This light passes through the specimen, is refracted and magnified by the lenses in the microscope, and then projected to create a magnified image that can be viewed through the eyepiece or captured using a camera.


Why does a microscope have two lenses?

A microscope has two lenses to magnify the image of the specimen. The objective lens, close to the specimen, captures a magnified image, which is further magnified by the eyepiece lens to enable viewing. This dual-lens system provides higher magnification and resolution.


Magnification and resolution as they pertain to a microscope?

Magnification lets you see an image larger than it is. But resolution makes the image clearer when magnified.


What type of image does a microscope give?

A microscope gives a microscopic image of what you have under it. This happens because the lense is curved


Is light microscopes use beams of electrons to produce magnified images?

No, a light microscope uses focused light (photons) to produce a magnified image. An electron microscope uses beams of electrons to create a magnified image.


What is eyepiece on microscope?

The eyepiece is the lens at the top of the microscope that you look in to see the magnified image of your specimen. The eyepiece also magnifies, usually 10x.


What are the characteristics of the image formed by simple microscope?

The image formed by a simple microscope is virtual, upright, and magnified. It is formed by the lens of the microscope and is viewed through the eyepiece. The image may appear slightly distorted towards the edges due to aberrations in the lens.


Why is the e inverted in the microscope?

The "e" in the microscope is inverted by the objective lens to produce an enlarged, inverted image that can be further magnified by the eyepiece. This inverted image allows for better focus and resolution when examining specimens on a microscope slide.
