How have microscopes changed over time?

The have become much more powerful.


What microscopes can enlarge images up to 100000 times or more?

An electron microscope can enlarge images up to 10,000,000 times (107x).Other types of microscopes that can achieve over 105 magnification include scanning probe microscopes, such as atomic force microscopes, electrostatic force microscopes, magnetic force microscopes, scanning tunneling microscopes, and piezo force microscopes.


Has the microscopes change over time?

yes it has it has change because of the size and also because of the way it's is made now in days


What was the approximate magnification Leeuwenhoeks first microscope?

The magnification of van Leeuwenhoek first microscope depends on what one considers his "first" microscope. Over a period of nearly 50 years, Anton van Leeuwenhoek made over 500 optical lenses (though they were used in an estimated 200 different microscopes) and can be said to have constructed at least 25 variations on the basic design of the microscope. Nine of his microscopes still exist. The lenses he made improved over time and would have started out at the low power of 5x or 10x typical for the time. When he made his discovery of how to make small spherical lenses, there would have been a significant jump in magnification to what power one can only guess, but it was larger than the best compound microscopes of the time which was around 30x. They continued to improve for the next 20 years. Of the lenses that he made which still remain, one is a 256x power lens. It is guessed, based on the quality of his reported observations, that he may have produced lenses with twice that magnification.


When were microscopes first used?

Microscopes were first used in 1590 by Hans and Zacharias Janssen

How did microscope's improve our lives?

Microscopes improved our lives because some peoples with cancer could die without then. Microscopes helped doctors look at cells and determine cancer cells, so they were easier to remove, when they reproduced. Scientists also used microscopes, and still do because it is easier to see the cells, bacteria, and other microorganisms from the microscope. That is how microscopes improved our lives.

Who developed the light microscope?

It was developed, and then you might say improved or modified over time. Zaccharias Janssen and Hans Janssen experimented with lenses that would help make the light microscope, as did Galileo. Anton van Leeuwenhoek also experimented with microscopes and so did Robert Hooke.
