A fast-moving electron collides head-on with a proton moving at (0.60 c_{0}) as measured in the Earth

Question:

A fast-moving electron collides head-on with a proton moving at \(0.60 c_{0}\) as measured in the Earth reference frame. What is the electron's initial speed if the two particles combine to form a system that after the collision is at rest in the Earth reference frame? The mass of the proton is 1836 times that of the electron.
