In an experiment to measure the speed of light by Fizeau's apparatus, the following data are used.

Distance between the mirrors=12.0 km,

the number of teeth in the wheel=180.

Find the minimum angular speed of the wheel for which the image is not seen in 104 deg s-1.

In an experiment with Foucault's apparatus, the various distances used are as follows.

Distance between the rotating and the fixed mirror=16 m.

Distance between the lens and the rotating mirror=6 m.

Distance between the source and the lens=2 m.

When the mirror is rotated at a speed of 356 revolutions per second, the image shifts by 0.7 mm. The speed of light is  2.n7×108 m s-1. Then find the value of integer n.

In a Michelson experiment for measuring speed of light, the distance travelled by light between two reflections from the rotating mirror is 4.8 km. The rotating mirror has a shape of a regular octagon. At what minimum angular speed of the mirror (other than zero) the image is formed at the position where a non-rotating mirror forms it? If the answer is 7.8×10x rev s-1, then write the value of x.
