Question

(c) Consider the section on resolution in microscopes and telescopes (though we are not covering telescopes in this course). For your own practice, rank the following in order of best resolving power: uv light, x-rays, red light, blue light. For this question, which has the best resolving power?

A. Red light

B. X-rays

C. UV light

d. Blue Light

There are two types of diffraction gratings. Transmission gratings are used to view interference patterns from light that  [ Select ] ["passes through", "reflects backwards from"]         the grating. Reflection gratings are used to view interference patterns from light that [ Select ] ["passes through", "reflects backwards from"] the grating.

choose correct word choices

Blue light

Answer 1

Resloving power is the ability of a instrument to resolve the wavelength of the light. Voilet has the minimum wavelength while red has high wavelengths resolving power is inversially proportional to the wavelength, - Ripa ! t= wavelength. Reso since wavelengths of the following radiation are Red light > Blue light > uv light > X rays =) Resolving power order is x rays > UV light s Blue light > Red light
