Yes, the wavelength of the light limits the maximum magnification of a microscope. Using visible light, the limit is about 1200 to 1500X.

Visible light given off by excited atoms and molecules in the upper atmosphere?
The Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) and the Aurora Australis (Southern Lights).
Why is there a lower limit to temperature but not an upper limit?
lower limit because the particles have zero energy. there is no upper limit because particles can move as fast as they like. There is an upper limit on temperature, called "Planck Temperature". It is approximately 1.42e32 Kelvin! This temperature is the maximum temperature something can attain, with the physics we understand.
Why does an incandescent light bulb produce a continuous spectrum that seems to favor red?
Actually the peak of the radiation from an incandescent light bulb is in the near infrared, not the visible spectrum. The visible light that you see is the falling upper sideband of this: very strong in the red and declining until it is weak in the blue and violet end with a very small amount of radiation in the ultraviolet. The lower sideband extends across the infrared and into the far infrared. Well under a third of the emitted electromagnetic radiation of an incandescent light bulb is visible light, most is infrared.
What is the maximum number of entries that can be placed in the chained hash table?
There is no upper limit.
Why is there an upper limit to the mass of neutron stars?
There is an upper limit to the mass of neutron stars because if the neutron star is too massive, neutrons would be crushed by the gravity of the neutron star, and the neutron star would collapse into a black hole.
Does red form the upper part of the spectrum because it is deviated the least?
In terms of general spectra, "red" is nowhere near the ends. When referring to visible light for humans, "red" is at one end because that is the limit at which the light becomes invisible (and thus not part of that spectra) (not because of any 'deviation').
What is the upper age limit for a member of Congress?
There is no upper age limit.
What is the upper and lower limit of 20?
Twenty one is the upper limit and nineteen is the lower limit of twenty.
What shape has the most angles?
There is no upper limit to the number of angles you can have.
What is the upper limit of rtgs?
2 lacks is RTGS upper limit. AVIJIT DEBNATH
What is the upper limit the Richter scale?
There is no limit.
What is the upper limit and lower limit?
write a function which computes product of all the number in a given range(from lower limit to upper limit) and returns the answer
What does upper age limit mean?
Upper age limit refers to the maximum age at which a person is eligible for a particular opportunity or benefit. For example, some job postings or government programs may have an upper age limit for applicants.
There is an upper limit on the speed of a particle This means that there is also an upper limit on its?
momentum, kinetic energy, velocity
