I really need help with figuring this question out.
Q. The Rayleigh Criterion states that:
A Two points can just be resolved in an image if their diffraction patterns overlap perfectly.
B Two points can just be resolved in an image if their diffraction patterns overlap such that the maximum of one overlaps the maximum of the other.
C Two points can just be resolved if their diffraction patterns overlap such that the second maximum of one overlaps the first minimum of the other.
D Two points can just be resolved if their diffraction patterns overlap such that the second maximum of one overlaps the second maximum of the other.
E Two points can just be resolved in an image if their diffraction patterns overlap such that the central maximum of one overlaps the first minimum of the other.
Thank you
