MCQ
An astronomical telescope has a large aperture to
  • A
    reduce spherical aberration
  • B
    increase span of observation
  • have high resolution
  • D
    have low dispersion

Answer

Correct option: C.
have high resolution
c
$y=\frac{\lambda D}{2 a}=\frac{6000 \times 10^{-10} \times 1}{2 \times 1 \times 10^{-4}}=3 \times 10^{-3}=3 \mathrm{\,mm}$
