In optics, the numerical aperture (NA) of an optical system is a dimensionless number that characterizes the range of angles over which the system can accept or emit light. By incorporating index of refraction in its definition, NA has the property that it is constant for a beam as it goes from one material to another, provided there is no refractive power at the interface. The exact definition of the term varies slightly between different areas of optics. Numerical aperture is commonly used in microscopy to describe the acceptance cone of an objective (and hence its light-gathering ability and resolution), and in fiber optics, in which it describes the range of angles within which light that is incident on the fiber will be transmitted along it. (Wikipedia).

Evaluate the limit for a value of a function
👉 Learn how to evaluate the limit of an absolute value function. The limit of a function as the input variable of the function tends to a number/value is the number/value which the function approaches at that time. The absolute value function is a function which only takes the positive val
