Transcribed Image Text:Consider a telescope with a small circular aperture of
diameter 2.0 centimeters.
Part A
If two point sources of light are being imaged by this telescope, what is the maximum wavelength A at which the two can be resolved if their
angular separation is 3.0 x 105 radians?
Express your answer
nanometers to two significant figures.
