2. What was the objective of conducting the Michelson-Morley experiment? Explain CO1
the experiment and give the explanation and interpretation of negative result.

3. State the postulates of special theory of relativity and derive Lorentz transformation CO1
equations.

4. a) Prove that 𝑥 + 𝑦 + 𝑧 − 𝑐 𝑡 is invariant under Lorentz transformation. CO1
