Part 2- The Microscope

•Invented in the 1500s

•Robert Hooke was the first to see cells

•Anton van Leeuwenhock was the first to see living things

Page 5: Rules for using the microscope. Carry with two hands Always start with low power.

Total Magnification Power

•The power of the eyepiece lens X the power of the objective lens being used.

•10x X 40x = 400x

International System (SI)

of Measurement

Page 7: Rules for using the microscope. Carry with two hands Always start with low power.

Advantages of the Metric System

• Creates an international system of measurement that uses the same standards world wide

• Ease of recording and calculating– All units are based on units of 10– Very precise measurements can be recorded

with decimals NOT fractions.

Page 8: Rules for using the microscope. Carry with two hands Always start with low power.

Subdivisions can be divided again and again for more

precision….1 unit

.01 unit

.001 unit

(Again by tenths)

Page 9: Rules for using the microscope. Carry with two hands Always start with low power.

“Base” Units• Unit of Length- Meter

– Based on the distance from the N. Pole to the equator

• Unit of Volume- Liter– The space an object takes up (solid, liquid or

gas)

• Unit of Mass- Gram– The amount of matter in an object

•A. FROM KILO TO MILLI

Important prefixes to know:

BASE UNIT

DECA 10x HECTA 100x

KILO 1000x

DECI .1

CENTI .01MILLI .001

The base of any unit determined by what you are

measuring

A prefix that makes a unit 10x

larger than the base

This prefix changes the

base into a unit 100x larger

This prefix changes the

base into a unit 1000x larger

This prefix changes the

base into a unit 1/10 as large as

the base

This prefix changes the

base into a unit 1/100 as large

as the base

This prefix changes the

base into a unit 1/1000 as large

as the base

Metric prefixes can be placed in front of all

metric units!

Metric ToolsBalance – used to

measure mass (grams)

Graduated cylinders and

beakers – used to measure

volume(liters)Meter stick –

used to measure length

(meters)

Microscope• Used to magnify objects and make small

details more apparent.

• Compound microscopes have two lenses that magnify the object. The eye piece and the objective lens.

• Total magnification = eye piece X obj. lens

• 3 objective lenses: 4x, 10x, 40x
