7.2 Muon Travel Distance
demonstration
This interactive demonstration shows how far a muon can travel at different speeds before disintegrating, taking into account the impact of time dilation on the muon’s lifetime. Use the slider to choose the speed of the muon. Notice that as the speed v of the muon approaches c, the distance it covers is much greater than in Newtonian physics.
