Pluto and its moon Hydra are separated by 64800 km. An undergraduate researcher wants to determine if the 5.08 m diameter Mount Palomar telescope can resolve these bodies when they are 7.40 × 10⁹ km from Earth (neglecting atmospheric effects). Assume an average wavelength of 575 nm. To determine the answer, calculate the ratio of the telescope's angular resolution OT to the angular separation OPH of the celestial bodies. от 0PH =
