If the spy satellite, which is 200km above the earth, uses a concave mirror 2m in diameter and yellow light at 600 nm find the answer. show all formulas and work to support the correct solution. with that resolving power what could the spy satellite actually see? (ignore variations in air density and temperature.)
The only formulas that I can see as being useful are: thetamin = 1.22*Wavelength/distance (Rayleigh criterion) and 1/focus =1/object+1/image
Quite frankly I don't think there is enough information to figure this out. Any help would be appreciated.
