It is a measure of the min. distance two points can be from each other before appearing as one through an optical instrument
The resolving power of an optical instrument (e.g.: microscope) refers to its ability to distinguish between two very close images/points - in short, resolving power affects how much detail the optical instrument can show
For example, a microscope with a resolving power of 200 nm (nanometres) means that any two points closer than 200 nm would appear as one point when observed through that microscope
Magnification
Magnification is the process of enlarging the apparent size of an object or image, not its physical size
It allows us to see objects in greater detail by making them appear larger
For example, a microscope with a magnification of X1000 would allow us to see a 0.5 mm (millimetre) object as 500 mm (5 cm)
An image of (living!) onion cells 🧅 looked at through a microscope with X300 magnification
what happens if you try to mag a g03lm? or has nobody tried that yet
They have a tendency to split open all of their skin, due to most of it being stitched on. It is impractical. MAGnifying regular units is much easier and more efficient.
"Imagin That! Jesus carrying all of our burdens upon His shoulder! When He was carrying the cross. baring the weight of our worst day and every weight in our world, carrying all our burdens and every struggle to the cross and walking with it all to calvary where He nailed every sin, every shame, all of our guilt and life's mistakes and baring that in His body; ALL for the JOY that was set before Him_ His intimate relationship with you and with me.!"
