A lens or combination of lenses in which the following defect is completely eliminated is called aplanatic
-
While setting a plane table at a station it was found that the error in centering was 30 cm away from the ray of length 40 m drawn from the station. If the scale of the plan is 1 cm = 2 cm, the displacement of the end of the ray in plan from the true position will be
-
In precision theodolite traverse if included angles are read twice and the mean reading accepted using both verniers having a least count of 30". Assuming the instrument to be in perfect adjustment, linear measurements correct to 6 mm per 30 metre tape duly corrected for temperature, slope and sag, the angular error of closure not to exceed (where n is the number of traverse legs)

Straight, parallel and widely spaced contours represent

The theodolites used for making tacheometric observations by optical wedge system, are

Resolving power of a telescope depends on
-
If 50 m point of a 100 m tape is 50 cm off line, and 50 m sections are straight, an error is generated equal to

Pick up the correct statement from the following :
-
If Î is the angle of deflection of a simple curve of radius R, the distance between the mid-point of the curve and long chord, is
