1. <u>Some drawbacks of electron microscopes:</u>

  • Price, size, repair, researcher learning and image artifacts arising from specimen preparation are the major drawbacks.
  • This form of magnification is a massive, burdensome, costly piece of equipment, highly sensitive to vibration and exterior magnetic field.
  • It must be held in an environment that is big enough to contain the microscope, as well as to secure and prevent any unwanted effect on the electrons.
  • Upkeep includes ensuring balanced voltage supplies, electromagnetic coil / lens currents and cool water circulation so that the specimens are not destroyed or damaged by the heat released during the electrons energization process.

2. If an object being viewed under the phase-contrast microscope has the same refractive index as the background material than "it would be difficult to see because the phase contrast microscope amplifies differences in the refractive index".

<u>Explanation:</u>

In order to improve the comparison of transparent and colorless specimens with the light microscopy pictures, thus phase contrast is used. This allows the visualization of cells and cell elements which would be hard to see using a standard light magnification. The phase comparison does not involve the destruction, fixation or staining of cells.

Due to diffraction and scattering phenomena which exist at the edges of these objects, large, extended specimens are also quickly visualized with phase contrast optical. As light transits through one medium to another, the velocity is changed in proportion to the variations in the refractive index between the two media. Therefore, the wave is either increased or decreased in velocity whenever a coherent light wave produced by the oriented microscope filament progresses via a phase specimen with a particular thickness and refractive index.

A piece of unsaturated air is forced to rise. The lapse rate in the surrounding air is much less than the rate in change of temp
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

stable

Explanation:

on the off chance that the natural slip by rate is not exactly the saturated adiabatic pass rate then any rising air package will be colder than the earth, and will sink down. The climate is described as totally stable in light of the fact that regardless of if the package is saturated or not, it can't get light after certain tallness.

What is the acceleration of a cabinet of mass 45 kilograms if Jake and Ted push it by applying horizontal force of 25 newtons an
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

a=0.96\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of cabinet, m = 45 kg

Two horizontal force of 25 newtons and 18 newtons respectively in the same direction.

When the forces are acting in same direction, the net force is equal to the sum of forces i.e.

F = 25 N + 18 N = 43 N

Let a is the aceleration of the cabinet

So,

F = ma

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{43}{45}\\\\a=0.96\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the cabinet is 0.96\ m/s^2.
