A positive kaon (K+) has a rest mass of 494 MeV/c2, whereas a proton has a...
The centre of mass, or centre of momentum, (CMS) frame is that in which the sum of the momenta (i.e., the total momentum) of all particles is zero. An electron has a kinetic energy K of 1 MeV and is incident on a proton at rest in the laboratory. The goal of this exercise is to calculate the speed of the CMS frame moving relative to the laboratory. (a) Express the initial energies Ee, Ep and initial momenta pe, pp...
-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...

(Round your answer to at least six decimal places.) v/c = b) What is the kinetic energy of the proton, in units of MeV? ________MeV
It is desired to create a particle of mass 4840 MeV/c2 in a head-on collision between a proton and an antiproton (each having a mass of 938.3 MeV/c2) traveling at the same speed. What speed is necessary for this to occur?
please answer 11 and 12 because they are connected to the same information given The Proton would decay to a neutral Pion and a Positron, there are no additional or missing particles. Both the Pion and the Positron are relativistic even when the initial Proton is at rest. Assume that the Proton starts at rest. The Proton has a rest mass of 938 MeV/c the neutral Pion has a rest mass of 135 MeV/c and the Positron has a rest...
