### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Resolution**: Two objects are said to be just resolved when the central maximum of the diffraction pattern of one object coincides with the first minimum of the diffraction pattern of the other object. This means that the two objects can be distinguished as separate entities. 2. **Limit of Resolution**: The limit of resolution (d) for a compound microscope can be calculated using the formula: \[ ...
