What term describes the ability of a microscope to distinguish two objects as being separate?
resolution
Differentiate comcound microscope to electron microscopes?
a compound microscope uses light and an array of lenses to magnify an objct an electron microscope on the other hand uses particles beams to illuminate the sample being use,/.
What is transition electron microscope used for?
A transmission electron microscope actually sends electrons off of its' very very sharp point and through the sample. The current measurement between the tip and the stage, where the object being measured lies, is monitored. The tip is maneuvered to keep constant current. This movement is measured and equated to the surfaces' geometry. It can see in great detail the objects surface. It can be used in semiconductor makers fabs to look at what they have made.
What is the light function in a microscope?
Light microscopes can magnify objects up to 1000 times their actial size, and they are often used for dissections. Light in the light microscope allows the viewers to see the specimen that is being magnified.
How is compound meter different from a simple meter?
A compound meter is a phrase used in music, and in flow measurement. For the latter, a compound meter is one in which the measuring system differs depending whether a large or a small flow is being measured. That is, the meter will contain two different measuring gauges.
What lens of a compound microscope is closest to the object being examined?
The 'object lens' in a compound microscope is closest to the object being examined.
What lens of the compound microscope is closest to the object being examined?
The 'object lens' in a compound microscope is closest to the object being examined.
What lens of a compound microscopes closest to the object being examined?
The 'object lens' in a compound microscope is closest to the object being examined.
Which lens of a compound microscope is closest to the objective being examined?
objective lens
What term describes the ability of a microscope to distinguish two objects as being separate?
resolution
What does the power of a microscope depend on?
Depends which type of microscope we are talking about. The common compund light microscope has a resolving power of 0.2 micrometer or 0.0002 millimeter. In comparison the human eye's resolving power is 0.1 millimeter. Resolving power is the minimum distance between two objects or particles such that the objects are distinguishable. So for example in the case of human eyes with resolving power of 0.1 millimeter, if you bring two objects any closer to each other than 0.1 mm, our eye cannot tell if they are two separate objects or not. Last but not least, the lower the resolving power, the higher the resolution. So because a compound microscope has a lower resolving power than human eye, it has a higher resolution.

What lens is closest to the objective stage on a microsope?
The 'object lens' in a compound microscope is closest to the object being examined.
Why the light microscope also called the compound microscope?
There are more than one type of light microscopes as well as other types of microscopes such as the SEM. The first microscopes were (and still being used) are the simple light microscopes. The compound microscope has that name because it contains two types of lenses that function to magnify an object. A simple microscope is a microscope that uses only one lens for magnification. It is the original design of the light microscope. Van Leeuwenhoek’s research used this type.
The adjective compound means made by the combination of two or more parts in a compound microscope which are the parts that are being combined?
I believe it refers to the fact that it uses more than one lens.
What is a light in a microscope?
Light microscopes can magnify objects up to 1000 times their actial size, and they are often used for dissections. Light in the light microscope allows the viewers to see the specimen that is being magnified.
