"A telescope resolves whereas a microscope magnifies." Justify this statement ?

उत्तर
Through telescope, we see the objects that are at infinite distance from the observer. These objects are already far apart from each other, but due to infinite distance from the observer, they do not appear distinctly. Thus, the telescope resolves these distant objects so that we can see them distinctly. On the other hand, a microscope magnifies extremely small objects. Thus, one can say that "a telescope resolves whereas a microscope magnifies".
