How long will the muon survive before decaying

Reference no: EM13647231

A subatomic particle called a muon has a mass 207 times that of an electron and a charge equal to an electron charge. In the rest frame a muon lasts for 2.2x10^-6s and has a speed of 0.980c. ( c is the speed of light in a vacuum).Relativistically according to the observers at rest with respect to the earth, how long will the muon survive before decaying?
