If light of `6000 Å` is coming from a star, what will be resolving power of a telescope, if diameter of objective is 100 inch ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the resolving power of a telescope given the wavelength of light and the diameter of the objective, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the formula for resolving power The resolving power \( R_p \) of a telescope can be calculated using the formula: \[ R_p = \frac{B}{1.22 \lambda} \] where: ...
