Question attached.
So, from the question, I'm assuming that the time, t, in reference to the detector is the 15ns, as the answer to part a) i) is 1.5m from: L prime = time in reference to detector × speed, so 15ns × 1/3 c =1.5m
Part ii) asks for the length of pulse beam in the frame of reference of the protons which surely must be the length l =l prime × gamma.
What I don't understand is why the markscheme has used tried to find l prime for part ii) I thought L prime was the proper length, I.e the length in reference to a static frame of reference, I.e. The detector?
I've attached the mark scheme
