What high-powered microscope produces an image from scattered secondary electrons?
electron microscope
A high powered microscope that produces an image from scattered secondary electrons is the?
Scanning electron microscope (SEM)
What does the electron microscope?
The electron microscope is a type of microscope that uses electrons to enlarge and illuminate an image of a specimen.
What does the electron microscope do?
The electron microscope is a type of microscope that uses electrons to enlarge and illuminate an image of a specimen.
Electron microscopes use a beam of light to produce a magnified image?
An Electron Microscope uses electrons to magnify objects.
Which type of microscope produces images on the surface of a cell?
Scanning electron microscope
Compare and contrast a compound light microscope and an electron microscope?
Light microscope: 1. Uses a beam of light that is focused using glass lenses. 2. Magnification is moderate -- not as much as electron microscope 3. Produces a color image since it uses light 4. Can look directly at the specimen with our eyes Electron microscope 1. Uses a beam of electrons that is focused using magnets. 2. Magnification can be extremely high and show details that are not possible with the light microscope 3. Produces a grey-scale image because color requires visible light 4. Image must be seen on a monitor or in a photograph because we don't see electrons.
Instrument that produces an enlarged image of an object?
microscope
What is the difference between an electron and a light microscope?
A light microscope is a simple microscope that magnifies light that it collects and spread onto a screen digitally or optically. Electron microscopes is a microscope that fire electrons onto a object then it is bounced back to form an image. It enlarges the image when it is bounced back. It is fired consistently to receive a constant image. It is viewed with a electronic screen. When the electron is fired it creates light which bounces back as well. It can magnify much bigger than a optical microscope.
Would you use a stereomicroscope or compound light microscope or electron microscope to see a virus?
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 is a stereomicroscope?
a stereomicroscope is a microscope that produces a three-demensional image
What could produce an image of individual atoms?
scanning electron microscope
