A person wants to see two pillars from a distance of 11 km, separately. The distance between the pillars must be approximately
  1. 3.2m
  2. 1m
  3. 0.25 m
  4. 0.5 m

A
1m
B
0.25 m
C
0.5 m
D
3.2m
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Resolving power of eye = 1=π60×180radians (approximately)

Let the separation between pillars =xm
Distance =11000m

=> x11000=π60×180

=> x=3.2m (approximately)

Answer. A)3.2m
