lenses (ocular and objective). Binocular microscopes have two eyepieces while the monocular ones have one eyepiece. The ocular lens of a compound light microscope usually has a magnification of 10x (means that the specimen to be viewed is magnified 10 times). The objective lens consists of a revolving nose piece with different degrees of magnification. The objective lens with the magnification of 10x is called ‘the low power’ while the one with 40x is called ‘the high power’. Total magnification

The larger the telescope’s main light-collecting element‚ whether lens or mirror‚ the more light is collected. Importantly‚ it is the total amount

1) The condenser lens concentrates light and makes illumination of image more uniform. 2) The bending of light is also known as refraction. 3) Total magnification = ocular lens magnification x objective lens magnification. 4) The total magnification of an image is 1200x and the magnification of the ocular lens is 10x. What is the magnification of the objective lens? Y = objective lens 1200x = 10x X y 1200x / 10x = y y = 120x Objective lens magnification = 120x 5) The limit of resolution

to allow more or less light. It is typically a plastic disk located between the light source and the specimen mount. The compound microscope has two systems of lenses for greater magnification‚ 1) the ocular or eyepiece lens that one looks into and 2) the objective lens‚ or the lens closest to the object. A microscope works by using lights‚ mirrors‚ and glass to magnify. The mirrors and glass bend the light in a certain way that it makes small objects appear larger. Method Procedure 1.2 Handling

Refraction in Biconcave Lens Now let’s investigate the refraction of light by double concave lens. Suppose that several rays of light approach the lens; and suppose that these rays of light are travelling parallel to the principal axis. Upon reaching the front face of the lens‚ each ray of light will refract towards the normal to the surface. At this boundary‚ the light ray is passing from air into a more dense medium (usually plastic or glass). Since the light ray is passing from a medium in

microscope. The term "compound" means more than one lens is used. In the compound microscope you have two lenses. The primary lens is the one closest to the object and then there is the secondary lens‚ which is furthest from the object. The secondary lens is used to magnify the image of the primary lens. The primary lens is aimed at the condenser‚ or stage‚ and this is where the object to be magnified in the form of a slide is placed. A modern compound lens can magnify the original diameter of specimens

Method: Place a mounted pin at a distance from the convex lens greater than the focal length so that a real image of the pin is produced. Locate this image by means of the second pin. Place the convex mirror between this second pin and the lens and adjust its position until the light reflected from the mirror passes back through the lens and forms an image coincident with the object

telescope to observe the sky and planets like Galileo but did it to further study the field of optics. Our reflecting telescope is similar to Newton’s that he made in 1668. Both ours and Newton’s consisted of a flat mirror‚ a spherical mirror and a convex lens. Our telescope also suffered from the repercussions of spherical aberration.
