Antiproton of kinetic energy E_k collides (bumps) with a proton
at rest. How much energy is available for the production of new
particles that have a mass.
relativistic calculation is needed and a must!
A proton collides elastically with another proton that is
initially at rest. The incoming proton has an initial speed of
4.00e5 m/s. The incoming proton has an initial speed of 4.00e5 m/s
and makes a glancing collision with the second proton (at close
separations, the protons exert a repulsive electrostatic force on
each other). After the collision, one proton moves off at an angle
of 30.0 degrees to the original direction of motion and the second
deflects at an angle...
A proton moving at 40 m/s due East collides with another proton
at rest. Assume the collision is elastic and glancing. After the
collision, one proton moves 30◦ south of East. Find the magnitude
an direction of the other proton after the glancing collision

A proton in a high-energy accelerator moves with a speed of
c/2. Use the work–kinetic energy theorem to find the work
required to increase its speed to the following speeds.
A. .710c answer in units of MeV?
b..936c answer in units of Gev?
1. What is the momentum (p) of a 960-MeV proton
(that is, its kinetic energy is 960 MeVMeV )?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.
2. An electron (mmm = 9.11×10−31 kg
) is accelerated from rest to speed vv by a conservative force. In
this process, its potential energy decreases by
6.70×10−14 JJ . Determine the electron's speed, v. (in
term of c.)
5. What fraction of rest mass energy is converted from potential
energy to kinetic energy when a particle comes from infinity to the
event horizon of a black hole?
1. (a) A 210-MeV photon collides with an electron at rest. What
is the maximum energy loss of the photon?
(b) Repeat (a), but with a proton target rather than an
electron. Is the difference between the results reasonable? Why?
(Based upon BFG, Problem 4.12)
2. Find the de Broglie wavelength of (a) an electron with a
kinetic energy of 1 eV (b) an electron with a kinetic energy of 1
keV (c) an electron with a kinetic energy of...
How much energy is required to accelerate a spaceship with a
rest mass of 107 metric tons to a speed of 0.458
c?
Tries 0/20
Every day our Earth receives 1.55×1022 J energy from
the Sun. If we were able to use 0.85 percent of this energy to
accelerate spaceships, then how many missions would be possible in
one year?
A proton, moving with a velocity of
viî, collides elastically with
another proton that is initially at rest. Assuming that after the
collision the speed of the initially moving proton is 1.40 times
the speed of the proton initially at rest, find the following.
(a) the speed of each proton after the collision in terms of
vi
initially moving proton
initially at rest proton
(b) the direction of the velocity vectors after the collision
(assume that the initially moving proton...
