The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, launched in 2008, can detect gamma rays with energies ranging from 10 keV to 300 MeV. For each of those energy extremes, fi nd the resulting kinetic energy and speed of an electron created by the gamma ray as part of an electron-positron pair. Assume that the electron has half of the gamma ray’s energy.
