H4. A student looks at two distant point sources of light. The wavelength of each source is 590 nm.
The angular separation between these two sources is 3.6 s104 radians subtended at the eye. At
the eye, images of the two sources are formed by the eye on the retina.
(a)
State the Rayleigh criterion for the two images on the retina to be just resolved.
[2]
.....................................................................
.....................................................................
.....................................................................
(b)
Estimate the diameter of the circular aperture of the eye.
[1]
.....................................................................
(c)
Use your estimate in (b) to determine whether the student can resolve these two sources.
Explain your answer.

The two point sources shown in the diagram below (not to scale) emit light of the same
frequency. The light is incident on a rectangular, narrow slit and after passing through the slit,
is brought to a focus on the screen.

Source B is covered.
(a)
Using the axes below, draw a sketch graph to show how the intensity I of the light from A
varies with distance along the screen. Label the curve you have drawn A.

Source B is now uncovered. The images of A and B on the screen are just resolved.
(b)
Using the same axes as in (a), draw a sketch graph to show how the intensity I of the light
from B varies with distance along the screen. Label this curve B.

The bright star Sirius A is accompanied by a much fainter star, Sirius B. The mean distance
of the stars from Earth is 8.1s1016 m. Under ideal atmospheric conditions, a telescope with an
objective lens of diameter 25 cm can just resolve the stars as two separate images.
(c)
Assuming that the average wavelength emitted by the stars is 500 nm, estimate the
apparent, linear separation of the two stars.

When the man is 150 m from the sources, the images of the two sources are just resolved by his
eye. The wavelength of the light from each source is 590 nm and the diameter of the aperture
of his eye is 5.0 mm.

(a)
Light from two monochromatic distant point sources, S1 and S2, is incident on a narrow
slit. After passing through the slit, the light is incident on a screen.

A woman views an approaching car at night. The apertures of her eyes are each of
diameter 3.0 mm. The headlamps of the car are separated by a distance of 1.2 m and emit
light of wavelength 400 nm.
Calculate the distance of the car from the woman at which the images of the two
headlamps are just resolved.

The planet Pluto is 4.5s1012 m from Earth and the diameter of Pluto is 2.3s106 m. The
average wavelength of the light received by the Earth from Pluto is 500 nm.

source of light.
