The angular size of the smallest features that the telescope can see
;-)
It allows two or more smaller telescopes to achieve angular resolution of a much larger telescope.
The resolution is the capability of the sensor to observe or measure the smallest object clearly with distinct boundaries. It depends upon the size of the pixel.
angular momentum and angular velocity
Angular velocity is a vector with a direction and angular speed is a scalar with no direction.
No, uniform angular velocity means no angular acceleration.
For telescopes of the same size: if the wavelength gets longer, the maximum theoretical angular resolution gets larger (i.e., worse).
Stars are very far away. Eyes just haven't got enough angular resolution. You can help it artificially with technology. Larger the thing, better the angular resolution.

Use of interferometers :)
a light-collecting area equivalent to that of a much larger telescope.an angular resolution equivalent to that of a much larger telescope.both the light-collecting area and angular resolution of a much larger telescope.Correct answer: an anguar resolution equivalent to that of a much larger telescope. ;-)
Basically the stars will appear as a single star.
No.
Well, I figured this out on my own eventually so I guess I don't need someone else to answer it for me. I'll lay out the answer here for anyone else that runs across this and is curious. 60' = 1 degree. The angular resolution that our eyes can see (1') is about 1/3 mm at arm's length. multiply this by 60 to get to the proper angular resolution of infrared = 20 mm at arm's length. Reading would be rather impossible (that is, if we were trying to read the same things that we are now).

no i hate when people just say no
