The proper mean lifetime of a muon is 2.2 × 10–6 s. A beam of muons is moving with speed 0.6c relative to an inertial observer.

Approximately how far will a muon in the beam travel, on average, before it decays?

What is dispersion of light?
maksim [4K]

The dispersion of light is the phenomenon of splitting of a beam of white light into its seven constituent colours when passed through a transparent medium. It was discovered by Isaac Newton in 1666.

Some life forms move so slowly that their movement cannot be detected by normal observation. The best way to determine any movem
romanna [79]
Not sure the precise concept of "normal observation", but I assume that is observed by "eyes".

Eye observation is basically macroscopic, but when you use a mark, which can be regarded as a point of mass, then it goes to microscopic.

Mark is a reference point which you can compare the relative position change, but with your eyes, first you cannot notice microscopic changes, second the eyes cannot precisely set a stable reference point.

The ratio of the wavelength of AM radio waves traveling in a vacuum to the wavelength of FM radio waves traveling in a vacuum is
Debora [2.8K]

This question is a big fat non sequitur !

The wavelength of radio waves traveling through vacuum only depends on the frequency that the radio station is licensed to broadcast on, (which had better be the frequency of the transmitter that they buy and use, or they're in big trouble).

The wavelength does NOT depend on the type of modulation that's used to put information onto the signal.  

An amateur radio (ham) operator may very well start out using FM to talk over his radio to somebody else, and then for some reason they may decide to switch to AM.  They can do that without ANY change in the wavelength of their transmissions.

Now, in the USA and many other countries, it so happens that all AM stations are licensed by their governments to transmit their programs on a channel somewhere between 500 KHz and 1.6 MHz, and all FM stations are licensed by their governments to transmit their programs on a channel somewhere between 88 MHz and 108 MHz.  (And THAT's what the radio receivers in these countries are built to receive.)

Then we might say that all of the AM stations are grouped around 1 MHz, and all of the FM stations are grouped around 100 MHz.  The FM frequencies are very roughly 100 times the AM frequencies, so the AM wavelengths are very roughly  100 times the FM wavelengths.  That's <em>choice (3)</em> .

But please don't get the idea that it has anything to do with using AM or FM technology.  It's just a matter of where in the spectrum the government decided to put the AM stations and where they put the FM stations.

For that matter . . . An analog TV station uses an AM signal for the picture and an FM signal for the sound, and it all goes in the same channel, with just about the same wavelengths !
