Microscope
Yusuke Fukuyama
Microscope is an optical instrument for looking at small objects, and organizms that are hard to see with human eyes. There are two lenses included in a microscope. The "Eyepiece Lense", and the "Objective Lense".
Hans and Zacharias Janssen first invented the compound microscope in 1595.
When looking at an object through microscope, the object is first lighted up with an light bulb nad a mirror in the stand. The light bounces up towards the object on the slide. The light passes through, and around the object, going to the objective lense. WHen the light goes in to the objective lense, the lights are bent out, and back straight towards the eyepiece lenses. (Refracts twice since there are two parts of the objective lense) When the light goes into the eyepiece lense, the light bents back in to your eyes. Then , the object is magnified.
How it Works
Use of Refraction
MAGNIFIED!
