In relation to a microscopewhat is magnification and resolution?

Magnification is the amount by which the image you see will be larger than the actual object, ie. if the image you see appears to be twice as large as the original object then it will be a 2x magnification. (magnification = size of image / size of object) Resolution is the smallest possible visible thing on the enlarged image. On a satellite picture the resolution may be 1m2 meaning that anything smaller is not visible on that picture. In the case of an electron microscope, for example, anything smaller than 1 electron will not be visible using the electron microscope.
