Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given an image shows a cellular structure at 10,000x magnification, and the actual size of the structure is known to be 5 micrometers, what is the size of the image displayed?

💡 Hint: Multiply the actual size by the magnification factor.

Question 2

Analyze a scenario where a researcher misinterprets a cell structure due to high magnification resulting in poor resolution. What can be done to avoid this?

💡 Hint: Consider evaluating the specifications of the microscope.
