What greek letter is a prefix in the metric system?
The Greek letter mu, μ, is used for micro- meaning millionths.
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 has the highest energy and the shortest wavelength and can be used to scan metal?
Gamma-rays
Why shorter wavelength blu ray can store more information than longer wavelength DVD?
Because the shorter wavelength needs less area to interact with matter. So the same amount of physics space on a DVD can be used more efficiently.
