Question
The 305 m diameter Arecibo radio telescope detects radio
waves with wavelengths from 3 to 100 cm. What is the angle
in radians between two just-resolvable 15.0 cm wavelength
point sources for this telescope?
angle:
rad
How close together could these point sources be at the 1.44
million light year distance of the Phoenix Dwarf galaxy (P
6830)?
distance:
Ly
