What is the relationship between magnification and the diameter of the field of view?
Magnification is inversely proportional to the diameter of the field of view.
How do you determine the diameter of the field of view?
At low power on the compound microscope, the diameter of the field of view is 4 millimeters. This is reduced to 1.7 millimeters when you switch to medium power and further reduced to 0.4 millimeters when you switch to high power. Covert the measurment for the field of view from millimeters to microns, the conventional unit of measurment in microscopy. There are 1000 microns in one millimeter. Low power: 4mm= 4,000um Medium power: 1.7mm= 1,700um High power: 0.4mm= 400um
When viewing objects under power the field of view is larger field of view but not as much view?
low
How is the diameter and circumference on a circle approximate to pi?
the diameter mutliplied by pi is the circumference. From a different view the circumference divided by diameter is pi.
What is the circular area that you see when you look into a microscope?
the field of view
What is the relationship between magnification and the diameter of the field of view?
Magnification is inversely proportional to the diameter of the field of view.
What is the diameter of the field of view is 5.6mm at 40x?
The answer is about 2.9mm at 80x.
How do you calculate a microscopes field of view?
Since the field of view is a circle, the size of the field of view is it's area. You would need to find the diameter of the field of view, using a transparent ruler or a micrometer. Divide the diameter measurement by 2 to get the radius. Then use the formula for the area of a circle, Area = πr2. For example, you measure the diameter of the field of view to be 2.14mm. Divide 2.14mm by 2 to get the radius, and you get 1.07mm. Square 1.07mm, which is 1.14mm2. Multiply x 3.14 (pi), and you get 3.58mm2. So the field of view for this example would be 3.58mm2.The field of view differs with different magnifications. The lower the magnification, the larger the field of view.
How big is the worm relative to the diameter of the field of view?
At low power on the compound microscope, the diameter of the field of view is 4 millimeters. This is reduced to 1.7 millimeters when you switch to medium power
What happens to the diameter of the field of the view when you change for low to high power?
The diameter of a field is decreased by 1.5 millimeters when changed from low power to high power magnification.
Why is it important that the object is centered in the field of view before switching to a higher power objective?
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT THAT THE IMAGE IS CENTERED IN THE FIELD OF VIEW BEFORE SWITCHING TO A HIGHER POWER
The diameter of a microscope's field of view is estimated to be 0.9 mm . about how wide is an object that fills two thirds of the field circle your answer?
0.6 mm
What would be the size of an object in mm that occupies 25 of the size of a field of view that is 32mm in diameter?
If the entire field of view is 32 mm and the object occupies 25% of that then you will multiply 32 by 0.25. The result is 8 mm.
What will happen to the field of view as you change objectives form 4x to 10x to 40x?
it will increase the magnification of the image of specimen
If the diameter of a field is 1.6mm and you count forty consecutive cells from one end of the field to the other how wide is each cell in micrometers?
To find the width of each cell in micrometers, divide the diameter of the field by the number of cells counted. (1.6 mm / 40 cells = 0.04 mm per cell ). Convert to micrometers by multiplying by 1000: (0.04 mm * 1000 = 40 μm). Therefore, each cell is 40 micrometers wide.
What are the advantages of knowing the diameter of the field of view at a given magnification?
You can use that to estimate the size of objects that you are observing.
Diameter of field is 1.6 mm and you count 40 consecutive cells from one end of field to other how wide is each cell in micrometers?
1,600 (micrometers {microns} per one field of view) divided by 40 (cells per field of view) equals [units cancel] 40 microns per cell.
