- The purpose of the experiment was to determine the nature of light, and whether there was an aether.
- A change in the interference pattern was expected.
- No change in the interference pattern was actually observed.
- The speed of light along the path from mirror M1 to the semi-transparent mirror is c - v, when c is the speed of light and v is the orbital speed of Earth.
The proper time of something in a frame of reference is the time measured from within that frame of reference.
Remember that you can relate mass to energy using E = mc^2
Also remember:
- v = f λ
- c = f λ
- f = c/λ
- Eγ = hf = hc/λ
