A telescope has an objective of diameter `60 cm`. The focal lengths of the objective and eye piece are `2.0 m and 1.0 cm`. Respectively. The telescope is directed to view two distant almost point sources of light (e.g. two stars of a binary). The sources are roughly at the same distance (`10^(4)` light years) along the line of sight, but separated transverse to the line of sight by a distance of `10^(10)m`. Will the telescope resolve the two objects ?
