Two light bulbs are 1.20 m apart. From what distance can these light bulbs be marginally resolved by a small telescope with a 4.50 cm -diameter objective lens? Assume that the lens is diffraction limited and λ =600nm.
given
a small telescope with a 4.50 cm -diameter objective lens
then d = 0.045 m
x = 1.2 m apart
λ = 600 nm
λ = 600 X 10-9 m
using equation
x = 1.22 λ D / d
here D value is unknown and have to find
so rewriting the above equation
D = x d / 1.22 λ
D = 1.2 X 0.045 / 1.22 X 600 X 10-9
D = 73770.4919 m
or
D = 7.37704919 X 104 m
or
D = 73.770 km

Two stars are 5.3 × 1011 m apart and are equally distant from the earth. A telescope has an objective lens with a diameter of 1.08 m and just detects these stars as separate objects. Assume that light of wavelength 490 nm is being observed. Also, assume that diffraction effects, rather than atmospheric turbulence, limit the resolving power of the telescope. Find the maximum distance that these stars could be from the earth.

) In the figure, a slit 0.30 mm wide is illuminated by light of wavelength 426 nm. A diffraction attern is seen on a screen 2.8 m from the slit. What is the linear distance on the screen between e first diffraction minima on either side of the central diffraction maximum? Answer: 8.0 mm 30) A thin beam of laser light of wavelength 514 nm passes through a diffraction grating having 3952 lines/cm. The resulting pattern is viewed on a...

Two lenses are mounted in a tube such that the distance between them can be varied. This device can be used as either a telescope or a compound microscope. One lens (the objective) has a focal length of 52.5 cm. (a) Find the focal length of the second lens (the eyepiece) such that the magnification |m|=si sN/(fobj feyepiece) of the microscope is the same as the magnification |m|=fobj/feyepiece of the telescope.
