What else can I help you with?
Which type of microscope can observe non-living cells?
A tunneling electron microscope cannot image live specimens.
Is there another example of a microscope other than the light and electron microscope?
Yes, there are different types of microscopes, such as the scanning probe microscope, which includes atomic force microscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy. These microscopes operate by scanning through a surface at a nanoscale level to create images with high resolution.
Which microscope should be ued for a virus is 50nm in size and why?
A virus of 50nm would be too small to see unless an electron microscope was used because it has greater resolving power and a resolution up to .1nm. A microscope using compound light as the means of illumination could not resolve better than approx. 200nms.
What type of microscope is used to show atoms?
The scanning tunneling microscope has a small probe which actually more like "feels" the size of the atoms and reads this out on a computer screen. The probe can pick up individual atoms. IBM used a STM years ago to spell I B M with uranium atoms and took a picture of it. But one does not actually directly "see" the atoms.
What are applications of uncertainty principle?
Uncertainty Principle can be used to give a drawback to Bohr's Model of an atom. In that atomic model Bohr said that electrons exist in certain well defined energy levels, to give a contradiction to this statement uncertainty principle may be used.
What do you view atoms with?
You can view an atom with a scanning- tunneling microscope and a atomic force microscopes.
What are the different types of microscopes and their purposes?
There are reflective microscopes (similar in design to a telescope), and transmission microscopes where the objective is on the other sample and used for looking at slides. There are phase-contrast microscope, electron microscopes and scanning tunneling microscope.
Which type of microscope can observe non-living cells?
A tunneling electron microscope cannot image live specimens.
What are the tools that scientists used to observe atoms?
They could use an electron microscope or an STM (scanning tunneling microscope)
What type of microscope do scientists use to see an atom?
Scientists use a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) or an atomic force microscope (AFM) to visualize atoms. These microscopes operate at the nanoscale level and rely on detecting the tiny forces that exist between the microscope tip and the atoms to create detailed images of atomic structures.
What is a scanning probe microscope?
A scanning probe microscope is a type of microscope that uses a physical probe to scan the surface of a sample to create images with very high resolution. It provides detailed information about the topography and properties of the sample at the nanoscale level. Examples of scanning probe microscopes include atomic force microscopes and scanning tunneling microscopes.
What microscopes can enlarge images up to 100000 times or more?
An electron microscope can enlarge images up to 10,000,000 times (107x).Other types of microscopes that can achieve over 105 magnification include scanning probe microscopes, such as atomic force microscopes, electrostatic force microscopes, magnetic force microscopes, scanning tunneling microscopes, and piezo force microscopes.
Can atoms be seen with an ordinary light microscope?
No, atoms cannot be seen with an ordinary light microscope. Atoms are much smaller than the wavelength of visible light, so they cannot be resolved using traditional optical microscopes. Specialized equipment such as scanning tunneling microscopes or atomic force microscopes are needed to visualize atoms.
Who invented the scanning tunneling microscope?
a scanning tunneling microscope measures electrons that leak, or 'tunnel', fromthe surface of specimen
Is there another example of a microscope other than the light and electron microscope?
Yes, there are different types of microscopes, such as the scanning probe microscope, which includes atomic force microscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy. These microscopes operate by scanning through a surface at a nanoscale level to create images with high resolution.
What is the maximum magnification of a microscope?
one can make images of atoms using a scanning tunneling mcroscope.
What microscope lets you see individual atoms?
electron tunneling microscope
