A terrestrial telescope (a "spyglass") by a diameter of 2.5cm is attached to a rifle and used for target practice with targets that are 330 m away. What is the smallest feature on the target that can be resolved by this telescope? Suppose λ = 500 nm. Ignore the effect of the Earth's atmosphere on the resolution.
