Summary Introduction

To determine:

The resolution of two objects which are 400 nm apart.

Introduction:

Objective lenses are the primary lenses of a microscope. These are the first lenses which magnify the specimen. The ocular lens remagnifies the image which is already magnified by the objective lens.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The resolution of two objects which are 40 nm apart.

Introduction:

Use of immersion oil increases the resolution power of microscopes. The resolution power of the microscope indicates that two objects placed at a particular distance can be identified as two separate objects by the microscope.

3D dimensionality is a limitation of the compound microscope. Depth of field, DOF, describes dimensionality form top to bottom and can be observed with colored cross threads. Observe the crossed thread slide on low power (4x), then on medium power (10x), then on high power (40x objective magnification). Which crossed fiber is on top? How do you know?
If the total magnification of a microscope is 700X and the ocular lens magnifies by a factor of 10x, what is the magnification of the objective lens that was used? Paragraph BIU
Using a good compound light microscope with a resolving of 0.3 micro meter a 10x ocular lens ,and a 100 x oil immersion lens, would you be able to discern two objects separated by 0.4 micro meter?0.2 micro meter? 300 neno meter ? Explain your reasoning.
