2ai) is just distance/speed
2aii) find to Proper time from relativity equation
2b) Particles will 'see' the distance as shorter so lo is 200 you are trying to find l

Enstein's theory of relativity Empty Question 3

Post  matthewfrain Wed May 09, 2012 12:16 am

On question 3... for part a) is this just E=mc^2 rearranged to get the mass? If so what do you use for the Energy of the electron?
Thanks

Enstein's theory of relativity Empty Finding mass

Post  jmorris Fri May 11, 2012 6:18 am

You need to find the relativistic mass. The proper mass is 9.11x10-31kg
