A beam of radioactive particles travels at a speed of 2.5 x 10^8 m/s. The half-life of the particles in the beam is measured to be 1.4μs by an outside observer. Determine the half-life of those particles when they are at rest with respect to the observer. [2 marks] When I performed calculations I considered the time given to be relativistic time as it is measured by an outside observer, however when I look up the answer, they treat the time given as the proper time and not the relatavistic time. Why is that?
