Question:

Suppose the distance to the fixed mirror in Figure 25-39 is decreased to 20.5 km.

In Fig 25-39

Observer Fixed 528 rev/s mirror Rotating mirror -35.5 km- Light source

(a) Should the angular speed of the rotating mirror be increased or decreased to ensure that the experiment works as described in Problem 16?
(b) Find the required angular speed, assuming the speed of light is 3.00 × 108 m/s.
