A) a particle of rest mass m is travelling so that its total energy is 2me2. it collides with a stationary particle of rest mass m to form a new single particle. what is the rest mass of the new particle? 9 marks b) a photon hits an electron at rest and produces an electron-positron pair according to the reaction γ + e-→ e-t-e-+ et, what is the smallest possible photon energy for this to occur? you may assume that electrons and positrons have equal masses. 8 marks c) a photon rocket uses pure radiation as the propellant. if the initial and final rest masses of the rocket are m, and m, show that the final speed v of the rocket, as measured in its initial rest frame, sat isfies m, 8 marks hint: if the total momentum of all photons emitted from the rocket has magnitude p then the total energy of all those photons is ecial to

On a horizontal frictionless surface, a small block with mass 0.200 kg has a collision with a block of mass 0.400 kg. immediately after the collision, the 0.200 kg block is moving at 12.0 m/s in the direction 30° north of east and the 0.400 kg block is moving at 11.2 m/s in the direction 53.1° south of east. use coordinates where the +x-axis is east and the +y-axis is north.(a) what is the total kinetic energy of the two blocks after the collision (in ) what is the x-component of the total momentum of the two blocks after the collision? (indicate the direction with the sign of your ) what is the y-component of the total momentum of the two blocks after the collision? (indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)
