Since measured lifetime ((11.06 ,\mu\texts)) < 34.0 (\mu)s, most muons decay before reaching ground we consider length contraction from muon’s frame: In muon’s frame, Earth’s atmosphere thickness is contracted: [ L' = \fracL_0\gamma = \frac10^45.025 \approx 1990 ,\textm ] Travel time in muon frame: ( t' = 1990 / (0.98c) \approx 6.77 ,\mu\texts ), which is > (2.2 ,\mu\texts)? Wait—discrepancy: properly, the muon sees Earth approaching, but its lifetime is (2.2 \mu s) in its own frame. In that frame, distance to ground is contracted, so it can reach if (L' / v < \tau). Let’s check: (1990 / (0.98c) = 1990 / 2.94e8 \approx 6.77 \mu s), which is greater than (2.2 \mu s) — that suggests it does not reach? That contradicts the Earth frame calculation? Something’s wrong. Let’s correct:

A muon is created in the upper atmosphere at a height of 10 km and travels toward Earth at ( v = 0.98c ). In the muon’s rest frame, its lifetime is ( 2.2 ,\mu\texts ). a) What is the muon’s lifetime as measured on Earth? b) Does it reach the ground before decaying? (Ignore atmospheric interactions.)
For those on this quest, here are a few suggestions on how to approach finding the solutions:
