if accurate i will rate it up thanks. 

A survey telescope has a converging lens with a diameter of 26.0 cm. During one exposure of the night sky, the telescope captures
an image of a space telescope. The telescope shines down with two green lamps (1 = 500 nm) that are separated by a distance of
1.40 m on the body of the craft.
Suppose that these two light sources can be resolved, albeit barely, by the telescope. At what altitude (in km) is the telescope
passing overhead?
km
