The low power magnification of a microscope is determined by the combination of the ocular lens and the low power objective. In this case, with a 20x ocular lens and a 10x objective, the low power magnification would be 20x (ocular) × 10x (objective) = 200x. The higher objective of 43x would not factor into the low power magnification calculation.
To calculate magnification on a microscope, you multiply the magnification of the ocular lens (eyepiece) by the magnification of the objective lens being used. For example, if the ocular lens has a magnification of 10x and the objective lens is 40x, the total magnification would be 10x × 40x = 400x. This means the image is magnified 400 times its actual size.
To examine objects at magnifications greater than 200x, a microscope is typically used. For most applications, a compound microscope is suitable, as it can achieve high magnifications through the combination of objective and ocular lenses. For even higher magnifications, such as those needed in microbiology or materials science, a specialized microscope like a digital microscope or an electron microscope may be required.
To calculate the total magnification of an image under a microscope, you multiply the magnification of the objective lens by the magnification of the eyepiece (ocular lens). For example, if the objective lens has a magnification of 40x and the eyepiece is 10x, the total magnification would be 40x × 10x = 400x. This value indicates how many times larger the image appears compared to its actual size.
Yes, a calibrated ocular micrometer can be used to measure the diameter or length of a field or object. Essentially, that is all that it is used for.
A calibrated ocular micrometer cannot directly measure the diameter of a field because it is designed to measure small, specific distances within the field of view of a microscope, such as the size of cells or other microscopic structures. The diameter of a field typically refers to the entire viewing area, which can vary depending on the magnification and the optical system used. To measure the diameter of a field, one would need to use a stage micrometer or other measuring tools that account for the total field size at a given magnification.

The main parts of the microscope are the eye-pieces, microscope tube, nose-piece, objective, mechanical stage, condenser, coarse and fine focusingknobs, and light source.
lower power= 20 x 10= 200x higher power= 20 x 43= 860x
Ocular lens- part of a compound microscope that a user looks into to see a magnified image. It is a see through doubled lens curved to cause images to appear larger.

The ocular lenses on a microscope are located at the top of the microscope's eyepiece tube. They are the lenses that you look through to view the magnified specimen on the microscope slide.
AnswerWell, the ocular lens is what you look into to see the specimen and the the objective lens is the closest frame to the specimen so they would be connected to the body tube.
The ocular lens magnify the image 10x.
