A particle with a mass two times that of an electron is moving at a speed of 0.880C. (a) Determine the speed (expressed as a multiple of the speed of light) of a neutron that has the same kinetic energy as the particle. When calculating gamma factors, keep values to six places beyond the decimal point and then round your final answer to three significant figures. (b) Determine the speed (expressed as a multiple of the speed of light) of a neutron that has the same momentum as the particle. When calculating gamma factors, keep values to six places beyond the decimal point and then round your final answer to three significant figures.
