The Michelson Rotating Mirror Experiment: LD Industries Physics 30
How can we measure the speed of light? One method refined by Albert Michelson involves using a rotating 8-sided mirror and light moving through a 35 km mine shaft. In this video, I walk you through the theory of this experiment as well as an example calculation. This video corresponds to the Alberta Physics 30 Program of Studies.
