A camera lens with focal length f = 50 mm and maximum aperture f>2
forms an image of an object 9.0 m away. (a) If the resolution is limited
by diffraction, what is the minimum distance between two points on the
object that are barely resolved? What is the corresponding distance
between image points? (b) How does the situation change if the lens is
“stopped down” to f>16? Use λ= 500 nm in both cases

Answer:

The minimum distance between two points on the  object that are barely resolved is 0.26 mm

The corresponding distance between the  image points = 0.0015 m

Explanation:

Given  

focal length f = 50 mm and maximum aperture f>2

s =  9.0 m

aperture = 25 mm = 25 *10^-3 m

Sin a = 1.22 *wavelength /D  

Substituting the given values, we get –  

Sin a = 1.22 *600 *10^-9 m /25 *10^-3 m

Sin a = 2.93 * 10 ^-5 rad

Now  

Y/9.0 m = 2.93 * 10 ^-5

Y = 2.64 *10^-4 m = 0.26 mm

Y’/50 *10^-3 = 2.93 * 10 ^-5  

Y’ = 0.0015 m
