^_^ can't belive this hasn't been answered yet. well Magnification makes things look larger then they are. Resolution is the ability to distinguish the individual parts of and object
Hope I helped ~
And by the way I'm in 3rd grade
and i know this stuff its very simple :3
Buh-Bye ^_^
What else can I help you with?
Is it better to have a telescope with a high resolving power or a high magnification explain why?
It is generally better to have a telescope with high resolving power rather than high magnification. Resolving power determines the ability to distinguish fine details in an image, while magnification simply increases the size of the image. High resolving power provides sharper and more detailed images, making it more useful for observing faint or distant objects in the night sky.
Does the diameter of a telescope control its magnification?
No, you can change the magnification of the telescope by simply changing the eyepiece. The two most important powers of the telescope, light-gathering power and resolving power, depend on the diameter of the telescope, but it does not control the magnification.
Explain the relationship between the resolving power of the microscope and the wavelength of the light being used?
The resolving power of a microscope is inversely proportional to the wavelength of light being used. This means that as the wavelength of light decreases, the resolving power of the microscope increases. Shorter wavelengths can resolve smaller details, allowing for higher magnification and clearer images.
What is the resolving power of a 25Cm telescope?
Resolving power is measured in arc seconds. The formula to find this is as follows: arc seconds (x) = 11.6/(D) 11.6 is part of the formula D- is the diameter of the telescope (which you have = 25cm) Therefore the resolving power should be: 11.6/25 = .46 arc seconds
Difference between resolving power and magnifying power of a lens?
Resolving power is how clear or sharp little. It is the ability to produce images sharp enough to distinguish two faraway objects that appear to be side-by-side.Magnifying power is how big you can get an image. More Magnification more will be the light spreads out from the image and as a result distortion will increases. So by increasing the Magnification, resolution will be poor and image will be dimmer and less information will be gain.
Does resolving power increase with magnification?
If magnification increases ONLY, then resolving power does not increase. However, if the magnification increased while staying in focus (upgrading resolution and magnification with objective lense), shorter wavelengths are needed to stay in focus with increased magnification to yield the same high resolution as with previous objective lense, so this case, resolving power does increase.
The magnification of a light microscope is limited to 1000X by the resolving power of the instrument.?
True!

What is the magnification power and resolving power?
Magnification is the size of the image of an object as compared to the true size of the object.Resolving power is the ability of an imaging device to separate (i.e., to see as distinct) points of an object that are located at a small angular distance.
Explain the relationship between the resolving power of the microscope and the wavelength of the light being used?
The resolving power of a microscope is inversely proportional to the wavelength of light being used. This means that as the wavelength of light decreases, the resolving power of the microscope increases. Shorter wavelengths can resolve smaller details, allowing for higher magnification and clearer images.
What happens to contrast and resolving power when the aperture of the condenser of a compound microscope is decreased?
That will depend whether the microscope is designed to cope with the new wavelength as well as it did with the old. For example, ordinary visible-light microscopes are useless for ultraviolet. The absolute limit to resolving power with perfect optics is about quarter of a wavelength but real microscopes fall short of this.
The most useful adjustment for increasing image contrast in low power magnification is?
Increasing the brightness or adjusting the contrast settings on the microscope can help increase image contrast in low power magnification. Additionally, using a higher quality objective lens or adjusting the illumination angle can also enhance image contrast.
What is the difference between Magnification and resolving power?
magnification:-magnification is increase in the size of an object resolution:-resolution is power of a microscope to distinguish between two objects.Higher the resolution easier it will be to see between the two pints
How can a compound microscope be distinguished from one that is not?
A compound microscope has two sets of lenses (objective and eyepiece) that magnify the specimen. In contrast, a simple microscope only has one lens. Additionally, compound microscopes are typically used for higher magnification and resolving power compared to simple microscopes.
What does resolving power of a microscope mean?
The resolving power of a microscope refers to its ability to differentiate between small details in an image. It is determined by the numerical aperture of the lens and the wavelength of the light being used. A higher resolving power means that the microscope can distinguish between finer details in the specimen being observed.
