Between 1878-1879, Albert Michelson conducted experiments to measure the speed of light. He sent a beam of light from a revolving mirror to a stationary mirror far away and back again. Assuming that in one of his experiments, the distance from the revolving mirror to the stationary mirror was 15.0 km, then the time interval between the light leaving and returning to the revolving mirror would have been:

In the Michelson experiment to measure c, light from a lamp source is reflected from one of eight mirrored faces of an octagonal wheel toward a mirror 35 km away. The light is reflected back to the wheel, where it is reflected into the observer's eye, as shown. What minimum angular speed should the wheel have so that the observer sees the light from the lamp? What is the next highest speed for which this is possible? A: 3364 s^-1...

2. Leon Foucault (French physicist) measured the speed of light with a rotating mirror in 1862. Albert Michelson (American physicist) refined Foucault's method to make a series of measurements over many years. His 1924 measurement was a major advance. The drawing shown below is a simplified description. SOURCE MIRRO TE LESCOPE OCTAGON AL RO ATING MIRROR Image of the source is seen in the telescope. When the mirror starts rotating, the image disappears. When the speed of rotation...

For an independent study project, you design an experiment to measure the speed of light. You propose to bounce laser light off a mirror that is 50.5 km due east and have it detected by a light sensor that is 133 m due south of the laser. The first problem is to orient the mirror so that the laser light reflects off the mirror and into the light sensor. (a) Determine the angle that the normal to the mirror should...
