Why is the image inverted in a microscope?
As we mentioned above, an image is inverted because it goes through two lens systems, and because of the reflection of light rays. The two lenses it goes through are the ocular lens and the objective lens. An ocular lens is the one closest to your eye when looking through a microscope or telescope.
How does the letter E show under the microscope?
Notice that it appears upside down when viewed under the microscope. This is a picture of the letter “e” shown at 100X. Notice, that as you increase the power of the lens, your field of view gets smaller.
