Problem 5: An experiment is created to accurately measure the speed of light by creating a very, very long tube, placing a mirror at one end, and pumping out all of the air to create a vacuum. A laser is then fired from the end opposite the mirror and the time it takes for the laser to make a round trip is measured. The first attempt yields a value of 0.68|1s. It is later discovered that an air leak at...

Assume that the speed of light in a vacuum has the hypothetical value of 18.0 m/s. A car is moving at a constant speed of 14.0 m/s along a straight road. A home owner sitting on his porch sees the car pass between two telephone poles in 8.79 s. How much time does the driver of the car measure for his trip between the poles?
