What is the momentum of proton moving at a speed of V= 0.86s?

 

hey friend

please approve my answer.............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

as momentum means mass * velocity

as we know that the  mass of a proton is 1.67*10^-27 and given velocity of the proton is 0.86

hence putting the values we get 1.4 *10^-27

Please correct your question 

Speed is 0.86c  not 0.86s

 

Given data:

Speed of proton =0.86c =0.86x3x10*8=2.5x10*8

C is speed of light 

Solution :

Mass of proton =1.67x10*-27

Momentum formula=P=mv

P= (1.67x10*-27)x(2.5x10*8)

P= 4.3x10*-19 ,     Answer

 

 

The answer needs to be in kg x m/s. According to my professor, the answer is 3.8 x 10^-19 kg x m/s.

 

I hope it may help you....
