That did answer a lot of questions. Thank you. But where do you derive the equation E=(K|q|)/r? My book says E=(K|q|)/r^2. I tried re-arranging some equations to get your equation, but I can't figure it out. Thanks.
A particle has γ=18,399.
a) Calculate c-v in m/s. (I would have asked for 1 - v/c, making the answer dimensionless, but the system doesn't seem to take numbers that small. Gamma is chosen to make the particle extremely close to the speed of light.)
If your calculator gives problems, you might want to solve the appropriate equation for c-v or c(1 - v/c) and use an approximation.
b) In a race to the moon, by 3/4ths the distance, light is one or ten meters ahead of the particle. We routinely approximate mass as zero, gamma as infinite, and speed as the speed of light. ("Massless particles" -- gamma and m have to be eliminated from the expressions. Light is a true massless particle.)
If a massless particle has momentum 1,739 MeV/c, calculate its energy in MeV.
Thank you so much!!

- That still doesn't answer my question. How did you take (m1 + m2)2 + (m1 + m2)2 and get (m1 + m2)2. Where did the extra (m1 + m2)2 go? There were two of them. Now there's suddenly one. That's the step I've been confused about since the beginning. I understand the physics. I'm having a problem with the algebra.arrow_forwardHi, I just need help with Part 2 of 4 please.
