Ole Roemer was a Danish astronomer who first determined the speed of light in1676. He measured it by noting the time of eclipse of Jupiter’s moon Io. With improvement in technique, the speed of light is accurately measured to:
Foucault method is used to measure the speed of light. This method uses a beam of light to reflect from a rotating mirror towards a fixed mirror. This creates two reflected beams. The
