A group of scientists decide to repeat the muon decay experiment at the Mauna Kea telescope site in Hawaii, which is 4205 m above sea level. They count 104 muons during a certain time period. Repeat the calculation of Section 2.7 and find the classical and relativistic number of muons expected at sea level. Why did they decide to count as many as 104 muons instead of only 103?
