Q

it is adjustable and is located below the stage that regulates the amount of light passing through the central opening of the stage or aperature of the microscope

A

diaphragm

20
Q

2 forms of diaphragm

A

iris diaphragm
disc diaphragm

20
Q

it has a lever on the side that moved to open or close the iris forming a circular opening allowing more or less light reaching the object

A

iris diaphragm

20
Q

a rotating disc fixed under the stage which have five or six holes of different sizes, when ortated varying amounts of light will pass through the stage opening

A

disc diaphragm

21
Q

this is found beneath teh stage with aknob on the side that move and down to focus the intensity of the light from an illuminator onto the specimen

A

condenser

22
Q

for non-electric microscope mirror are present that contains concave and flat surfaces to gather and dirct the light to illuminate the object

A

disc diaphragm

23
Q

this part consists of certain precise parts chiefly of metal to support and adjust teh optical parts

A

mechanical parts

24
Q

short curved handle use for holding and carrying the microscope

A

arm

25
Q

upper portion of the body tube where the eyepiece is inserted

A

draw tube

26
Q

attached to the arm that bears the lenses of the objectives

A

body tube

27
Q

a structure at the lower end of the body tube that bears the lenses that can rotate to switch between objective lenses

A

rotating nosepiece

28
Q

a structure above the nosepiece that protects the lenses

A

dust shield

29
Q

a knob geared to the body tube or to th epillar is use to bring the object into focus

A

Course adjustment knob

30
Q

is use for focusing finer details of specimen being viewed

A

fine adjustment knob

31
Q

a platform where the specimen is usually mounted onto a glass slide is placed for observation

A

stage

32
Q

these are two metal clips that will hold the slide in place

A

stage clip

33
Q

a central opening in the stage where teh light rays pass through

A

stage aperture

34
Q

a short supporting piece arising from the base

A

pillar

35
Q

a heavy Y-shaped foot on which the microscope stand for support

A

base

36
Q

a juction near the base that allows the microscope to be inclined at a certain angle

A

inclination joint

37
Q

it is useful for a non-electric micrscope

A

iinclination joint

38
Q

this is to know the number of times that the image of the drawing is enlarged in length as compared with the actual size of specimen observed

A

magnification of drawing

39
Q

magnification of drawing formula

A

size of drawing in mm / actual size of specimen observed in mm

40
Q

total magnification formula

A

Mt = Me * Mo

41
Q

Me means —-

A

magnification of eyepiece

42
Q

Mo means—-

A

magnification of objecives in use

43
Q

it is the circular lighted field where you see the image of the object or specimen, it is determined henusing the different objectives

A

field of vision

44
Q

formula of field of vision

A

A = pir^2
