You will write three functions about instruments that make things look larger and about the limit of what they can show.
The idea. A magnifying glass of focal length has when the image is at the near point and when it is at infinity, with . A compound microscope with the final image at infinity has . A telescope with an objective of diameter separates two points only if the angle between them is at least . One radian is degrees, and one degree is arcseconds.
Your tasks.
simple_magnification, return the magnifying power. The argument at_near_point is True or False.compound_magnification, return the size of the magnifying power of the microscope.smallest_angle, return the smallest angle in arcsecond. The wavelength is in nm and the aperture is in m.Have you tried it?
Do the tasks in the editor first, and run the checker after each one. Its hints help when a check fails. When you are ready, compare your code with this solution.
