Question

The pupil of an eagle's eye has a diameter of 5.8 mm. The eagle is diving directly toward two adjacent field mice and is first able to resolve them as separate objects from a height of 121 meters. Using 550 nm for the wavelength of the light, calculate the distance between the mice. Photons in the Paschen series correspond to transitions into the second excited state of Hydrogen by electrons initially in higher states. Which of the following is not the energy of a Paschen series photon? A. 0.66 eV B. 0.85 eV C) 0.97 eV D) 1.13 eV

Explanation / Answer

6)resolving power,

theta = 1.22 lambda/D

= 1.22*550e-9/5.8e-3

= 0.0001157

distance between mice = L*2*theta

= 121*2*0.0001157

= 0.028 m answer
