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 is dispersive power and resolving power of a grating?
No
What is meant by the resolving power of a microscope?
the resolution (resolving power) of a microscope means its ability to distinguish two items at its highest magnification. the same goes for any other optical instrument. its like watching two lines which are extremely close to each other with unaided eye and then watching them with the microscope. with the unaided eye they will appear as one line. with the microscope they will appear distinct.
What is the resolving power of a scanning electron microscope?
the resolving power of light microscope is 0.2 micrometr
Explain the relationship between the resolving power of the microscope and the wavelength of the light being used?
Resolving power of microscope is inversely related to the wavelength of the light used. So shorter the wavelength, greater the resolving power.
What is meant by resolving power of the microscope?
The ability of a microscope to measure by separation images that would be difficult to see with the naked eye. This separation is called angular separation.
What is horizontal resolution?
resolving power
What important senses does eagles use and why?

What is the difference between the resolving power and the magnifying power?
help!
Differentiate between resolving power and magnifying power?
BOYYYYYY
What is the resolving power of an electron microscope?
Resolving power is the ability of an imaging device to separate points of an object that are located at a small angular distance
What are the 4 properties of a telescope?
I know of at least three. I hope these help: - magnifying power - light gathering power - field of view
