At the summit оf Mаunаkeа (altitude 4,205 m), a detectоr recоrds 10,000 muons traveling toward sea level at a constant speed of 0.98c. The mean lifetime of a muon at rest is 1.52 μs.  The decay formula is N=N0e(-0.693tt1/2){"version":"1.1","math":"N=N0e(-0.693tt1/2)"}  Part A (5 Points): Calculate the number of muons expected to reach a sea-level detector based on classical physics. Part B (10 points): Calculate the number of muons expected to reach sea level based on Special Relativity.
