define tube In a microscope
Answers
Answer:
The microscope body tube separates the objective and the eyepiece and assures continuous alignment of the optics. It is a standardized length, anthropometrically related to the distance between the height of a bench or tabletop (on which the microscope stands) and the position of the seated observer’s eyes. It is typically fitted with a rotating turret that permits objectives of different powers to be interchanged with the assurance that the image position will be maintained. Traditionally, the length of the body tube has been defined as the distance from the upper end of the objective to the eyepiece end of the tube.
