The Mount Palomar telescope has an objective mirror with a 508-em diameter. Determine its angular' limit of resolution at a wavelength of 550 nm, in radians, degrees, and seconds of arc. How far apart must two objects be on the surface of the Moon if they are to be resolvable by the Palomar telescope? The Earth-Moon distance is 3.844 × 3 08 m; take λ0 = 550 nm. How far apart must two objects be on the Moon if they are to be distinguished by the eye? Assume a pupil diameter of 4.00 mm.
