The limit of resolution of a telescope is $2.5 \times 10^{-7} \text{ rad}$. If the telescope is used to detect light of wavelength $500 \text{ nm}$ coming from a star, the diameter of the objective lens used by the telescope is: (in $\text{ cm}$)

The human eye has an approximate angular resolution of $\phi = 5.8 \times 10^{-4} \, rad$ and a typical photoprinter prints a minimum of $300 \, dpi$ (dots per inch, $1 \, inch = 2.54 \, cm$). At what minimal distance $z$ should a printed page be held so that one does not see the individual dots?

How to increase the resolving power of a telescope and a microscope?

According to Abbe,in the formula for the resolving power of a microscope,the numerical aperture is represented by:

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A$: An electron microscope can achieve better resolving power than an optical microscope.
Reason $R$: The de Broglie wavelength of the electrons emitted from an electron gun is much less than the wavelength of visible light.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
