Problem 7: A photographer is
attempting to take a photo of two ships on the horizon which are
separated by a distance L = 9.8 m. The camera
has an aperture of D = 1.1 cm. Assume the range
of visible light is 400 nm - 700 nm.
Part (a) Find the minimum angle of
resolution in degrees.
Part (b) What is the maximum distance, in
meters, that the ships can be from the photographer to get a
resolvable picture?
Problem 5: Light of
wavelength λ = 315 nm passes through a
single slit of width a = 0.38 mm. A
diffraction pattern is formed on a screen L =
1.2 m away.
Part (b) Calculate the value
of I/Imax at an angle
of θ = 19°.
