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.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Why don’t most light microscopes use 303 ocular lenses for greater magnification?
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.
Why is it important to center your object before moving to higher magnifications in a light microscope??
