-31 1 Electrons have a rest mass of 9.1095x103"kg(0.511 MeV/c2) and an energy of 0.511 MeV million electron volts) when at rest. In a colliding beam experiment, a beam of electrons accelerated to a high speed is sent toward a beam of antielectrons (same mass as electrons) moving in the opposite direction at the same speed. a.) Experimenters hope to create the J/y particle that has a rest mass energy of 3097 MeV through one of these collisions. The J/y...
