Determine the ratio of the relativistic kinetic energy to the nonrelativistic kinetic energy (1/2mv2) when a particle has a speed of (a) 2.71 x 10-3c. and (b) 0.855c.

Answer

equation to determine the value of relativistic kinetic energy

the required ratio

a)when particle has speed of v = 2.71 x 10⁻³ c  

b) when particle has speed of v = 0.855 c  

none, its a machine
