A mirror has a hole cut in it so that a light can shine through. Opposite the mirror is another mirror, which is parallel to the first. The light ray hits the second mirror with angle ?1, is reflected at an angle ?2 , and then is incident on the first mirror at angle ?3. At what angle to the normal, ?3, in terms of ?1, will the reflected ray then impact the first mirror?
1. ?/2 – ?1
2. ?1
3. ?/2 + ?1
4. –?1

Time Dilation: Observer A sees a pendulum oscillating back and forth in a relativistic rocket and measures its period to be TA. Observer B moves along with the rocket and measures the period of the pendulum to be TB. What is true about these two time measurements?
A. TA > TB B. TA = TB C. TA < TB D. TA could be greater or smaller than TB depending on the direction of the motion.
