- B1.1 The World of the Microscope
- Light Microscopes
- Low Magnification
- Can be used anywhere
- Observe live specimens
- Cheap
- Magnify up to x2000 and have a resolving power of about 200nm
- Electron Microscopes
- Higher Magnification
- Finer Detail
- Large
- Expensive
- Kept in special conditions
- Magnify up to about x2,000,000 and have a resolving power of around 0.2nm
- Magnification =size of image/size of real object
- Magnification
- 1km = 1000m
- 1m = 100cm
- 1cm = 10mm
- 1mm = 1000um (micrometers)
- 1um = 100nm (nanometers)
- Light Microscopes
