Question

Which of the following light is suitable for maximum resolution

Answer 1

Answer:

Hello ✌️

Explanation:

D) Red. Since the limit of resolving power of a microscope is fixed by the structure of light, the shortest wavelength of visible light will give the maximum resolution. Among yellow, green, red and blue light colour. Blue (500 nm) have shortest wavelength so, it will give best resolution.

Answer 2

Answer:

Red colour light is suitable for maximum resolut

• There is a fundamental limit to what can be resolved using light microscopy. The Abbe diffraction limit ( resolvable distance, d, is equal to lambda/2×numerical aperture; d=lambda/2×NA)

• So from this you can see that the smaller the wavelength the shorter the distance you can resolve, but it is also depending on the numerical aperture of your objective or lens.

• Unfortunately NA is limited by the refractive index of the glass used in the lens. With current commercially available objectives, the highest NA you can get is about 1.52
