-
A.
Michelson rotating mirror experiments
Michelson rotating mirror experiments were precision optical measurements conducted by Albert A. Michelson to determine the speed of light using rapidly spinning mirrors and long-distance light paths.
-
B.
Fizeau experiment
chosen
The Fizeau experiment was a pioneering 19th-century physics experiment that measured the speed of light using a rotating toothed wheel and helped establish light’s finite velocity.
-
C.
Foucault experiment
The Foucault experiment is a 19th-century optical test devised by Léon Foucault to measure the speed of light with high precision using a rotating mirror apparatus.
-
D.
Ives–Stilwell experiment
The Ives–Stilwell experiment is a classic test of special relativity that measured the relativistic Doppler effect to confirm time dilation for fast-moving ions.
-
E.
Eötvös experiment
The Eötvös experiment is a classic physics test of the equivalence principle that measures whether different materials fall with the same acceleration in a gravitational field.
- F. None of above.
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
