NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The higher the power of magnification, the smaller the field of view. For example, if you determine that your field of view is 2.5 mm in diameter using a 10X ocular and 4X objective, you will be able to determine what the field of view will be with the high power objective by using the above formula.

Detailed explanation-2: -The total magnification of a specimen is obtained by multiplying the magnification of the objective lens by the ocular lens. What you observe through the microscope is your field of view. As one increases the magnification, your field of view decreases. At low magnification you might see an entire organism.

Detailed explanation-3: -Magnification and Distance on a Microscope For optical microscopes, the higher the magnification, the closer the lens must be positioned to the object being observed.

Detailed explanation-4: -Magnification is the most misunderstood aspect of telescopes, but not only by beginners. New telescope users often assume that more magnification gives a better view. They quickly learn that this is rarely true, and that on the contrary, lower power almost always yields a better image.
