The the separation of the image of the pair is 1.67°.

Explanation:

Given that,

Actual separation = 1 min

Magnifying power = 100

We need to calculate the separation of the image of the pair

Using formula of angle

\text{Angle of separation}=m\times\text{actual separation}

Put the value into the formula

\text{Angle of separation}=100\times1'

\text{Angle of separation}=100'\times0.016667

\text{Angle of separation}=1.67^{\circ}

Hence, The the separation of the image of the pair is 1.67°.
