A lidar (laser radar) gun is an alternative to the standard radar gun that uses the Doppler effect to catch speeders. A lidar gun uses an infrared laser and emits a precisely timed series of pulses of infrared electromagnetic waves. The time for each pulse to travel to the speeding vehicle and return to the gun is measured. In one situation a lidar gun in a stationary police car observes a difference of 1.03 10-7 s in round-trip travel times for two pulses that are emitted 0.450 s apart. Assuming that the speeding vehicle is approaching the police car essentially head-on, determine the speed of the vehicle.
