A very simple astronomical telescope is constructed from a single concave mirror as shown in the Figure 3. The concave mirror creates an image of distant objects on the imaging sensor. The telescope mirror has a focal length of 1.0 m, a diameter of 40 cm. The imaging sensor is a square 6.0 mm x 6.0 mm with an 1200 x 1200 array of pix- els on it. imaging sensor telescope mirror L Figure 3 What is the angular resolution of this telescope when using monochromatic light of wavelength 540 nm? 2.0m D
