Two points separated by a distance of 0....

Two points separated by a distance of 0.1 mm can just be resolved in a microscope when a light of wavelength 6000 Å is used. If the light of wavelength 4800 Å is used this limit of resolution becomes :-

A

0.05 mm

B

0.06 mm

C

0.07 mm

D

0.08 mm

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`x_(2)/x_(1)=(lamda_(2))/(lamda_(1))=(4800)/(6000)=(4)/(5)`
`therefore x_(2)=(0.1)mmxx(4)/(5)=0.08 mm`
