Question

In the formula for resolving power (RP = 1.22λ/D), what do λ and D represent, respectively?
Options
A λ is lens diameter, D is focal length.
B λ is wavelength of light, D is diameter of mirror (objective).
Correct Answer
C λ is magnification, D is objective distance.
D λ is light intensity, D is eye pupil diameter.
Correct Answer

Option B is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

The text explicitly defines these parameters after the formula: 'where λ=wavelength of light, and D=diameter of mirror (objective)'.

Hint

The definitions for λ and D are given directly below the resolving power formula.
