B)[5 points] Calculate the total energy of a proton when its kinetic energy is exactly half of its total energy. Express your answer in J (joules).(You may use scientific notation with three significant figures.)
C)[5 points] Calculate the speed of a proton when its kinetic energy is exactly half its rest energy. Express your answer in ms.(You may use scientific notation with three significant figures.)
Problem 4[15 points]
An electron has a de Broglie wavelength =5.510-10m. Mass of electron is me=9.110-31kg. The Planck's constant is h=6.6310-34J*s.
A)[5 points] What is its momentum?
B)[5 points] What is its speed? (Hint: You should use the classical formula for momentum: p=mv although you know the relativistic formula p=mv).
