Why are electron microscopes capable of revealing details much smaller than those seen through light microscopes?
Electron microscopes are capable of revealing details as much as 1000 times smaller than those visible in light microscopes because the wavelengths of electrons are much shorter than those of light.
What can be considered to be the combination of a proton and an electron?
The pair form a hydrogen atom.There is a fallacy that's taught about this pairing, which is that the electron-proton pair form a neutron. See my answer to the question "What particle has the same mass as a hydrogen atom?" for more details about this, and why it is wrong.
How is the use of a small scale maps different from the use of large scale map?
If details are needed (larger) smaller or fewer details (small)
How is the use of small-scale maps different from the use of large scale maps?
If details are needed (larger) smaller or fewer details (small)
Heart of the matter?
The specific heart of the matter; the practical details.
How does the scanning electron microscope differ from compound microscope?
A scanning electron microscope uses a focused beam of electrons to create high-resolution images of the surface of a specimen in 3D while a compound microscope uses visible light and lenses to magnify and study the internal structures of small specimens. The SEM has higher magnification and resolution capabilities, making it ideal for studying surface details down to the nano-scale.
Is an electron microscope used to magnify a living specimen?
An EM is basically of 2 types. Scanning Electron Microscope and Transmission Electron Microscope. Yes definitely it is used to magnify and resolve specimens but a living specimen cannot be used. Only dead are used. This is due to certain disadvantages that come along with this microscope. If need further details over the microscope uses and types then let me know.yea...i completely agree wif yuh... :)
What type of microscope would you use to examine the surface details of a cell?
A scanning electron microscope (SEM) would be used to examine the surface details of a cell. It provides high-resolution 3D images of the cell surface by scanning it with a focused beam of electrons.
What is an electron microscope also named?
According to the Encyclopdia Britannica, there are many kinds of electron microscopes:"The transmission electron microscope (TEM) can image specimens up to 1 micrometre in thickness. High-voltage electron microscopes are similar to TEMs but work at much higher voltages. The scanning electron microscope (SEM), in which a beam of electrons is scanned over the surface of a solid object, is used to build up an image of the details of the surface structure. The environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM) can generate a scanned image of a specimen in an atmosphere, unlike the SEM, and is amenable to the study of moist specimens, including some living organisms.Combinations of techniques have given rise to the scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM), which combines the methods of TEM and SEM, and the electron-probe microanalyzer, or microprobe analyzer, which allows a chemical analysis of the composition of materials to be made using the incident electron beam to excite the emission of characteristic X-rays by the chemical elements in the specimen."More information about electron microscopes may be found on the Encyclopedia Britannica's website:http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/183561/electron-microscope
What microscope is used to see details of a 300 nm virus?
An electron microscope is typically used to see details of a 300 nm virus as it provides higher resolution images compared to light microscopes. Transmission electron microscopes (TEM) and scanning electron microscopes (SEM) are common types used for this level of magnification.
What microscope use a beam of electrons instead of light?
An electron microscope uses a beam of electrons instead of light to magnify specimens. This allows for higher resolution images and the ability to view smaller details compared to light microscopes.
Produces greatly magnified images of surface details?
A scanning electron microscope produces greatly magnified images of surface detail. It functions by scanning a sample with a focused ray of electrons.
True OR FALSE an electron microscope use light to view the details of a specimen?
False, electron microscopes use electrons to view specimens which have been treated with special metallic "dyes". (the clue is in the name)
What power of the microscope used for endoplasmic reticulum?
A high-power microscope, such as an electron microscope, is used to visualize the endoplasmic reticulum. The intricate structure of the endoplasmic reticulum requires high magnification and resolution to observe its details effectively.
What kind of microscope would you use to view living specimens?
A regular microscope, use the 500X for details.
What type of microscope provides the greatest resolution?
Depth of field in a microscope refers to the distance between the nearest and the furthest objects that produce a distinct image of a specimen. It is usually very short and is measured in microns.
How much more powerful is electron microscope than the light microscope?
An electron microscope is significantly more powerful than a light microscope as it uses a beam of electrons instead of light to view specimens. This allows for much higher magnification and resolution, making it possible to see smaller details in the sample. Electron microscopes have a resolution that is up to 1000 times higher than that of light microscopes.
