What is the maximum resolution of light in a light microscope in micrometers?
Very roughly, the limit is determined by the wavelength (colour) of the electromagnetic spectrum (light) it uses and will be about 1/2 this wavelength. For more detail the link below is good.
What is the maximum useful magnification of a compound light microscope?
1000X
What are the the two most important parts of the microscope?
Light adjustment knob: It allows you to adjust the light where you can see the specimen, and set it so that you can comfortably use the microscope without straining your eyes. If the knob was broken and the light was too bright, you should not want to use it. Many people don't worry with it and put their light at maximum causing them eyestrain or headaches after some time.And the lenses are also important.
What is the formula for microscopic resolution?
S = (0.61 X λ)/(I x sin(x)) where: S = Resolution λ = wavelength I = Refractive index sin(x) = maximum angle of light gathering Both I and sin(x) are constants for a given objective lens, there product is referred to as N.A. or "Numerical Aperature".
Why it is said that number of theoretical plates should be high for a good efficiency?
In liquid chromatography the 'theoretical plates' number is a measure of the resolution between the peaks of different eluting substances. The higher the plate value the greater the separation. This is particular important as the load reaches the maximum the column is designed for.
What microscope would be used to study a specimen smaller than 0.2 micrometers?
The maximum magnification of a light microscope is 2000x. Anything requiring more than 2000x magnification requires an electron microscope.

What is the maximum resolution for a SEM microscope?
for a field emission gun you can go to 5-2 nm resolution
What is the maximum useful magnification of a compound light microscope?
1000X
What is the maximum magnification's of the scanning electron microscope?
The scanning electron microscope has a magnification range from 15x to 200,000x (reached in 25 steps) and a resolution of 5 nanometers.
Where should an adjustable condenser be set for maximum resolution?
An adjustable condenser in a microscope should be set at the highest position for maximum resolution. This position allows for maximum illumination and better focus of the specimen, resulting in sharper and more detailed images.
What is the maximum resolution for Intel 82915g?
2048x1536 at 85 Hz maximum resolution
Would you be able to see an atom with a compound microscope?
No. The maximum magnification of compound optical microscope is approx 1000. This would allow a person to see an object approximately 0.1 micrometres (10^-7 metres) in size. The radius of an atom is less than 1/400 of that.
Maximum magnification of a compound microscope?
1000x is getting to the limits of lights ability to be refracted, you may beable to push it out a bit but 1000x is getting to the edge
What is the maximum resolution available for Mac wallpapers?
The maximum resolution available for Mac wallpapers is only limited by the size of the Mac screen. The wallpapers themselves can be of any resolution.
What is the maximum power of magnification of a compound microscope?
Typical Classroom microscopes are 400x, to go any higher you need and oil immersion scope
For an lcd monitor what is the best resolution to use?
the best resolution of a monitor is the maximum it can handle, i.e 1920x1080 would be best on a hdtv or a monitor which has its maximum of 1920x1080.
