Question

Which one of the scales listed below is a microscopic scale?
A) 10-15m or less
B) 10-7
m down to 10-15m
C) 10-3
m down to 10-6
m
D) 10-3
m or larger

Expert Solution
Step 1

Since for the case of microscopic scale, things can shown in microscope. So, microscope only can see up to micro level. 

Here

a)

10-15  m or less, is less than femtometer, so microscope can't see this

 

b)

10-7 to 10-15 m, it is also comparable to femtometer, so microscope can't see this.

 

d)

10-3 m or above, it can be observed by using cm or m scale, no need of microscope. 

 

c)

10-3 to 10-6 m, it is the range of microscope, so it can easily observed by microscope.

 

 

So, here microscopic scale is 10-3 to 10-6 m.
