Why should you use the fine focus knob only when working with the 40x objective lens?

You should have already used the Coarse adjustment on 10x so when you switch to 40x, all you need to do is fine adjust it. Plus, you don't want to break it by turning the Coarse up all the way.


High power on microscope?

On a the microscope I use, the ocular (eyepiece) has a magnification power of 10x. The 'low' (or 'scanning') objective lens is 4x, the 'medium' has a power of 10x, and the 'high' has a power of 40x. Multiply the ocular by the lens you're using to get your 'total magnification.' TIP: Only use the coarse adjustment knob while on 'low' power, then use the fine adjustment. Why? If you use the coarse adjustment knob on 'medium' or 'high,' there's a good chance you'll crack your slide. -BugCrunch

Which objective should the coarse focus knob be used?

The coarse adjustment knob is only used with the low-power objective lens (usually 4x) because all the other ones are too long and the coarse adjustment knob may bring the slide up too qucikly, therefore it might break the slide or crush the specimen being observed. When using the medium (10x) and high (40x) power objective lens, it is best to use the fine adjustment knob to focus on the details instead.


What is the use of the coarse adjustment knob?

The course adjustment moves the stage of the microscope further/closer away from the objective lens (it is used for general focusing), and the fine adjustment moves the objective lens very small distances for finer focusing.


How do you find the total magnifying power of a microscope?

MP=(d/L)*(1-(L-l)f) where d would be the distance from the eye to the image without a lens L is the distance from the eye to the new virtual image (with a lens) l is the distance from the eye to the lens this equation only covers a single lens (whereas there tend to be two in a microscope), but that's no worry; use it twice! (i.e treat both lenses as independent sources of the image)

The coarse adjustment knob should never be used when viewing in high power with a compound microscope. When in high power, use the coarse adjustment (the knob smaller than the coarse adj.) to more accurately focus on the subject.
