A particles of rest mass m_0 with kinetic energy T strikes a stationary particle of the same rest mass. Find the rest mass and the velocity of the compound particle formed as a result of the collision. |

Answer» SOLUTION :`M_0c^2=SQRT(E^2-c^2p^2)` `sqrt((2m_0^2+T)^2-T(2m_0c^2+T))=sqrt(2m_0c^2(2m_0c^2+T))=csqrt(2m_0(2m_0c^2+T))` ALSO `cp=sqrt(T(T+2m_0c^2)), V=(c^2p)/(E)=csqrt((T)/(sqrt(T+2m_0c^2))` |
