Choose the correct statement regarding a compound microscope being used to look at a mite. The eyepiece lens forms a virtual image of the mite. If the focal distance of the objective lens is shortened, then its magnification decreases. The converging objective lens forms a virtual image of the mite. If the focal distance of the objective lens is lengthened, then its magnification increases. The image formed by the objective lens should be located just inside the focal point of the eyepiece lens

a) True. The image of the mite is virtual

e) True. The image must be within the focal length of the eyepiece len

Explanation:

Let's review the general characteristics of compound microscopes

Formed by two converging lenses

Magnification is

       M = -L/fo   0.25/fe

Where fo is the focal length of the objective lens and fe is the focal length of the ocular lens, L is the tube length

Let's review the claims

a) True. The image of the mite is virtual

b) False. The effect is the opposite of the magnification equation

c) False. The objective lens forms a real image

d) False. As the seal distance increases the magnification decreases

e) True. The image must be within the focal length of the eyepiece len

the journeys of marquette, joliet and la salle a) new france expand.

all three of these explorers explored the midwest and the area around the great lakes, which they subsequently claimed for france.

this was a big portion of territory and expanded new france which before then only consisted of quebec province in northeastern canada
