Which telescope has a better (smaller) angular resolution: a 2-m telescope observing visible light (wavelength 5.0×10-7 m) or a 10-m radio telescope observing radio waves (wavelength 2.1×10-2 m)?

the most accurate telescope

Explanation:

The resolution limit of any telescope is determined by the diffraction effects, which is described by the equation

        a sinθ = m λ

Where a is the width of a linear slit,  λ  the wavelength and m e an integer that indicates the order of diffraction, in this case m = 1 is used to have the width of the central maximum,

       sin θ = λ  / a

Since the angles are very small, we can approximate the sine to the value of the Angle

       θ = λ / a

In the case of circular objects, polar coordinates must be used, the expression changes to a constant

        θ = 1.22 λ  / a

Let's apply this equation to the two telescopes

Telescope

       θ₁ = 1.22 5.0 10⁻⁷ / 2

       θ₁ = 3.05 10⁻⁷ rad

Radio Telescope  

       θ₂ = 1.22 2.1 10⁻² / 10

       θ₂ = 2.56 10⁻³ rad

We compare the two values

    θ₁  <θ₂

with the invention of the automobile, the woman of the house could drive to the store and get groceries. women were also free to socialize more. during world war ii women were allowed to work in factories to the war effort and could drive to work or ride mass transit buses to their jobs.
