A particle at rest decays by the reaction (a) What is the total energy (total energy includes rest energy) of the decay products? (b) Assuming that the kinetic energy of the is negligible compared with the energy of the photon, calculate the approximate momentum of the photon. (c) Use your result from Part (b) to calculate the kinetic energy of the (d) Use your result from Part (c) to obtain a better estimate of the momentum and the energy of the photon.
