An early method of measuring the speed of light makes use of a rotating slotted wheel. A beam of light passes through a slot at the
outside edge of the wheel, as in the figure, travels to a distant mirror, and returns to the wheel just in time to pass through the next slot
in the wheel. One such slotted wheel has a radius of 3.23 cm and 130 slots at its edge. Measurements taken when the mirror is L-
1090 m from the wheel indicate a speed of light of 3.00 x 105 km/s. (a) What is the (constant) angular speed of the wheel? (b) What is
the linear speed of a point on the edge of the wheel?

- The speed of light is c = 3.0 x 10^8 m/s. If the distance between the Earth and the moon is d = 2.39 x 10^5 mi (1.0 mi = 1.61 km). You send a laser from the Earth to the moon and back. How long does this take?arrow_forwardA fiber optic gyroscope is a fascinating device used to measure rotation rate (angular velocity), which is a necessary parameter to be measured in through autonomous navigation systems (inertial navigation). They are based on an interferometer conceived in 1913 by the French physicist Georges Sagnac. In a Sagnac interferometer, a beam of light is split and the two beams are made to follow the same path but in opposite directions. On return to the point of entry the two light beams are allowed to exit the fiber loop (see Figure and undergo interference. If the loop rotates clockwise, the clockwise optical path becomes longer than the counterclockwise optical path (see Figure 2). The phase difference (interference) is proportional to the rotation rate (angular velocity).

- It’s a sunny Saturday afternoon and you are walking around the lake by your house, enjoying the last few days of summer. The sidewalk surrounding the perimeter of the circular lake is crowded with walkers and runners. You then notice a runner approaching you wearing a T-shirt with writing on it. You read the first two lines, but are unable to read the third line before he passes. You wonder, ”Hmmm, if he continues around the lake, I bet I’ll see him again but I should anticipate the time when we’ll pass again.” You look at your watch and it is 5:07pm. You estimate your walking speed at 3 m/s and the runner’s speed to be about 14 m/s. You also estimate that the diameter of the lake is about 2 miles. At what time should you expect to read the last line of the t-shirt?arrow_forwardIn a michelson type experiment, the rotating 8 sided mirror spins at 30 000 revolutions per minute.

- how would you solve this? Light is emitted from the light source, reflects from mirror surface X to the plane mirror, and then to the position of surface Z. By the time the light moves from the X to Z position, mirror surface X will have moved to the position of mirror surface Z. The light then continues to the observer. The distances from the light source and the observer to the rotating mirrors are negligible. The distance from the rotating mirrors to the plane mirror is 35.0 km.If the mirrors are rotating at 480 rev/s, the speed of light calculated from the given information is a 7.44 10–9 m/s b 1.34 108 m/s c 2.98 10–8 m/s d 3.36 107 m/sarrow_forwardA vector of 6 units makes an angle of 45 degrees with the positive x-axis.
