Multiple Choice
A microscope has an objective lens with an aperture of diameter 0.50 cm where a monochromatic light source of wavelength 580 nm is used to illuminate the object.It is determined that the minimum angle of resolution is 1.13 × 10−4 rad.If the illuminating source were replaced by an violet source of wavelength 420 nm,what would the minimum angle of resolution now become? (1 nm = 10−9 m)
A) 1.6 × 10−4 rad
B) 0.98 × 10−4 rad
C) 0.81 × 10−4 rad
D) 0.49 × 10−4 rad
E) 1.13 × 10−4 rad
