Question 3: Calculate
wavelength/diameter for each, pick the smallest.
a.A 2.3 meter
telescope operating at 2 microns (like WIRO): 9x10-7
b.The Hubble Space Telescope (2.5
meter) at 150 nanometers: 6x10-8
c.The Very Large Array (36 km) at
43 GHz (0.65 cm): 1.8x10-7
d.The 10-meter Keck telescope at
500 nanometers: 5x10-8
The issue here is mostly unit
conversions and being systematic.
