A proton moves with a speed of 0.950c. Calculate (a) its rest energy, (b) its total energy, and (c) its kinetic energy.
15.1 The Wave Model • Traveling wave Organized disturbance that travels with a well defined wave speed • Mechanical waves Waves that involve motion of a substance through which they move the medium ‣ Medium of water wave: water ‣ Of sound: air ‣ Of stretched string is the string ‣ Causes displacement from Equilibrium Wave speed ‣ Speed with which a ripple moves across the water or pulse traveling down a string ‣ Wave transfers energy but the medium does not travel Electromagnetic and matter waves ‣ Electromagnetic don't require a material medium and travels through a vacuum ‣ Light travels through space transverse and longitudinal waves ‣ Transverse when
