The resolving power of human eye (in minute) is:-
A:-1/60 B:-1 C:-10 D:-1/2
Answers
The resolving power is a optical time which means the optical capabilities of an optical system,to distinguish between two nearby points seperately from each other.
The resolving power of any optical set-up is calculated by the unit of arc/second.
Similarly,our human eyes are also an optical system.The resolving power of our human eye is 60 arc/second or 1/60 arc/minute.
So,the correct answer is Option A;1/60.
The "resolving power" of a human eye is A: 1/60
The "resolving power" is the power to resolve two closest point or line by any optical instruments.
Therefore, the human eye has the resolving power same as any optical instrument and it depends upon the size of the aperture of the eye and can be derived by the optical formula which renders us the result that the human eye has resolution of one arc minute which can also be written as one arc 60 seconds and thereby it is 1/60.
