There are special microscope slides available, which have on them a millimeter scale graduated down to 1/100 of a mm. Manufacturers of microscopes make these.

How can you predict whether an object will float?

Generally speaking your human insincts is fairly good. Using your eyes to see if it seems like it will float. Feeling how heavy it is in relation to its size, basically checking its density. Using a scientific method requires alot of number crunching, using the density of water and its boyancy capacity over a specific area of the water. Taking in assumptions like if its on sea water, temperature of 20oC, the object won't sink due to holes. ECT ECT...


This is an object's change in motion per unit time in a specified direction?

The phrase "change in motion" is rather slippery.The size of the change in the object's position, per unit time, in a specifieddirection, is the component of its velocity in that direction.The size of the change in the object's velocity, per unit time, in a specifieddirection, is the component of its acceleration in that direction.


What are the two classifications of dimensions?

The two classifications of dimensions are Size Dimensions, and Location Dimensions. Size Dimensions are placed in direct relationship to a feature to identify the specific size. Location Dimensions are used to identify the relationship of a feature to another feature in an object.

How you would calculate the amount an object is magnified when using a microscope?

M=O/A magnification = observed size/actual size


What kind of microscope would a scientist use to determine the shape of a cell?

A scientist would use a light microscope to determine the size and shape of a cell. A light microscope uses visible light to illuminate the object being viewed. Light microscopy is used to observe the overall size and shape of a cell. An electron microscope is used to observe the structure and contents of a cell, including membrane-bound organelles.

What is the differnece between a simple microscope and compound microscope?

A simple microscope has only one lens and can magnify an object up to 15 times the object's size. A compound microscope has two lenses and can magnify an object more than 2,000 times.


What is the ratio of the size of the image seen with the microscope to the actual size of the object?

There is no constant ratio for image size to object size It depends on, 1. Image size 2. Sensor specifications (ex: Focal length of the camera) 3. Camera to Object distance 4. Acquisition angle (Theta) 5. Light focusing 6. Need some Known object values for determine unknown object size etc...


When drawing from a microscope what should be included in your picture?

Everyhting you see in the microscope and especcialy what you are supposed to see. You should make a note of what you are looking at and which magnitute you are using to give the viewer sence of the actual size of the object.
