What is resolving power?

A microscope has objective of aperture 8mm and focal length 2.5 cm . Estimate its resolving power. Given lambda= 5500 dotA .

Diameter of the objective of a telescope is 200cm. What is the resolving power of a telescope? Take wavelength of light =5000Å.

Assume that light of wavelength 500 nm is used to illuminate a telescope. What is the resolving power of a telescope whose objective has a radius of 200 cm ?

With regard to an astronomical telescope of refracting type, state how you will increase its resolving power.

If f_(0)=5cm, lambda= 6000Å, a=1cm for a microscope, then wht will be its resolving power

What is meant by resolving power of a telescope ?

The ratio of resolving power of an optical microscope for two wavelength lambda_(1)=4000Å and lambda_(2)=6000Å is:

If aperture diameter of the lens of a telescope is 1.25 m and wavelength of light used is 5000 Å its resolving power is

When an object is viewed with a light of wavelength 6000Å under a microscope, its resolving power is 10^(4) . The resolving power of the microscope when the same object is viewed with a light of wavelength 4000Å , is nxx10^(3) . The vlaue of n is
