Construction of a compound microscope: (1) A compound microscope consists of a metal tube fitted with two convex lenses at the two ends. These lenses are called the objective lens (the lens directed towards the object0 and the eyepiece (the lens directed towards the eye) . Both the lenses are small in size , but the cross section of the objective lens is less than that of the eyepiece. The objective lens has a short focal length . The focal length of the eyepiece is more than that of the objective lens. (2) The metal tube is mounted on a stand . The principal axes of the objective lens and the eyepiece are along the same line.The distance between the object and the objective lens can be changed with a screw. use : This microscope is used to observe blood cells, microorganism , etc. In a compound microscope, which lens has greater focal length?
