How does the resolving power of the Mount Palomar 5-m telescope compare with that of the 2.4-m Hubble Space Telescope? AMount Palomar dHubble Space Telescope Why does HST generally still outperform the ground-based 5-m telescope? The resolving power of the Mount Palomar 5-m telescope has a higher value than that of HST, and telescopes with higher values for resolving power can not distinguish objects as well as telescopes with lower values for resolving power. Earth's atmosphere affects visibility for the Mount Palomar 5-m telescope and limits resolving power to about 0.5 seconds of arc. HST is not affected by distortion due to the atmosphere. The resolving power of the Mount Palomar 5-m telescope has a lower value than that of HST, and telescopes with lower values for resolving power can not distinguish objects as well as telescopes with higher values for resolving power. HST is in orbit around the Earth, and so it is closer to the stars than the Mount Palomar 5-m telescope. By being closer, HST is better able to distinguish two stars from one another.

The largest telescopes in the world are used to detect: a)x-ray. b)radio wave. c)visible light. d)ultraviolet.

Plz show full and simple easy to follow explanation and working. Thanks

Which of these statements best explains why a telescope enables us to see details of a distant object such as the Moon or a planet more clearly? The image formed by the telescope is larger than the object. The image formed by the telescope extends a larger angle at the eye than the object does. The telescope can also collect radio waves that sharpen the visual image
