If the mirror $R$ in Foucault's experiment were to rotate at 12,000 rev/min, find $(a)$ the rotational speed of the mirror $R$ in revolutions per second and $(b)$ the rotational speed of the sweeping beam $R M_{1}$ in radians per second. Find the time it takes the light to traverse the path (c) $R M_{1} R$ and $(d) R M_{2} R .$ What is the observed slit deflection $(e) E E_{1}$, and $(f) E E_{2}$ ? Assume the distances $R M_{1}=R M_{2}=6.0 \mathrm{~m}, R S=R E=6.0 \mathrm{~m}$, the
A small plane mirror placed at the centre of a spherical screen of radius R. A beam of light is falling on the mirror. If the mirror makes n revolution. per second, the speed of light on the screen after reflection from the mirror will be
