What instrument makes thing look bigger?

You could use a microscope to vastly magnify a microscopic specimen, or you could use a magnifying glass to make writing or other things that you are able to faintly see with the naked eye, or if your sight is slightly impaired you can wear glasses to enlarge small things you have difficulty seeing.


What is the value of a 1994 Kennedy half dollar?

All circulating half dollars dated 1971 and later are made of copper-nickel, not silver, and are only worth face value. Feel free to spend it. If your coin is uncirculated it might sell anywhere from $1 to $20 as of 02/2010 depending on its quality. A clad proof specimen would be in the $5-$14 range, while a silver proof would be $18-$30.


What is the ideal critical diameter and can it be determined with a jominy test?

The Jominy Test involves heating a test piece from the steel (25mm diameter and 100mm long) to an austenitising temperature and quenching from one end with a controlled and standardised jet of water. Take a sample from the furnace and place it on the Jominy test fixtures and observe the cooling pattern. After quenching the hardness profile is measured at intervals from the quenched end after the surface has been ground back to remove any effects of decarburisation (0.38mm is removed from the surface). The hardness variation along the test surface is a result of microstructural variation which arises since the cooling rate decreases with distance from the quenched end. The cooling rate along the Jominy test specimen varies from about 225 °C s-1 to 2 °C s-1.

How is the total magnification of a microscope determined?

Total magnification is determined by multiplying the magnification of the ocular lens by that of the objective lens. Compound microscope that uses more than one lens to direct light through a specimen mounted on a glass slide.


What is the function of the higher power objective on a microscope?

To increase the magnification of the specimen so you can see more detail.


What is the formula for calculating total magnification on a microscope?

To determime total magnification of a drawing you devide the dimensions of the drawing by the dimensions of the real object or specimen drawn Mathematically Magnification =Dimensions of drawing/dimensions of specimen


What is a cylindrically shaped attachment on the revolving nose piece of a compound light microscope near the specimen?

The objective lens magnifies the specimen, producing a real image that is then magnified by the ocular lens resulting in the final image; The total magnification can be calculated by multiplying the objective lens value by the ocular lens value


What is the function of the eyepiece of a microscope?

The function of the eyepiece is to allow us to observe the specimen in a microscope. It multiplies and adjusts the magnification of the objective lenses. Sometimes, it even corrects aberrations of the objective lens.


What is the part of a compound light microscope that is located directly above the specimen and that magnifies the image of th specimen?

It's the objective.


What microscope would be used to study a specimen smaller than 0.2 micrometers?

The maximum magnification of a light microscope is 2000x. Anything requiring more than 2000x magnification requires an electron microscope.


What is the function of the high power objective on a microscope?

The high power objective on a microscope increases the magnification of the specimen, which allows you to see more detail. It allows you to see a close up of only a small area of the specimen being viewed.


How big would the specimen look?

the specimen is the objective the microscope and a parts of microscope


What is the magnification of a specimen viewed with a compound microscope under the 4X objective lens?

40 because you have to multiply the ocular lens times the objective lens and the ocular lens is almost always 10x i think. Hopefully it is in your case. I know our microscopes are like that. Hope this helps! :)


How is magnification calculated using simple micrroscope?

Total magnification is determined by multiplying the magnification of the ocular lens by that of the objective lens. Compound microscope that uses more than one lens to direct light through a specimen mounted on a glass slide.
