2. Using the Michelson-Morley experiment as an example, explain
why classical mechanics was unable to explain natural
phenomena.
3. Using at least one of Einstein's "thought-experiments",
explain how special relativity addresses how it is possible for
observers in two different inertial reference frames to “disagree”
about time and distance intervals.
Consider a Michelson–Morley experiment with 11-m light paths
perpendicular and parallel to the ether wind. What would be the
difference in light travel times on the two paths if Earth moved
relative to the ether at
(a) its orbital speed (Appendix E);
(b) 0.01c;
(c) 0.5c; and
(d) 0.99c?
The morley dataset can be seen as a randomized block experiment
with Run as the treatment factor and Expt as the blocking factor.
Is there a difference between runs and what efficiency is gained by
blocking?
Please solve using R. morley is a dataset in R. To access this

• What determines protein structure?
• Describe the experiment that lead to this conclusion?
• What type of chemical interactions are involved in the tertiary
protein structure?
a)Draw the diagram and describe the key components of a PLD.
b)Describe the main advantage in using PLD deposition versus other
Physical Vapour Deposition methods.
Describe an experiment to determine if a resistor models ohms
law.
(i) Draw a diagram of the experimental setup. Label all the
measured quantities and draw or state what equipment is used.
(ii) Describe the overall procedure including any necessary
steps to reduce experimental uncertainty. It should be thorough
enough so that another lab student can follow the directions.
