puppy_53 asked:
Compare the function of the objective lens of a telescope with the objective of a
microscope. In each case, do you want a large focal length or small? Why? Where is your
object? Where and what kind of image is formed? Compare the function of the eyepiece
in both instruments. Do you want a large focal length or small? Why? Where is your
“object”? Where and what kind of image is formed?

bigK asked:
so what’s the difference between the objective lens of a microscope and a telescope. for each do you want the object in front or behind each lens. which is a bigger focal length better for, and what kind of image is formed for each?

water_skipper asked:
If there’s a 50X telescope and a 50X microscope they do the same thing, don’t they? Is being able to focus far away verses close up the only real difference?
