An unstable particle is at rest and suddenly decays into


A) An unstable particle is at rest and suddenly decays into two fragments. No external forces act on the particle or its fragments. One of the fragments has a speed of 0.70c and a mass of 6.68×10?27kg, while the other has a mass of 1.67×10?27kg. What is the speed of the less massive fragment?

B) The total annual energy consumption in the United States is about 1×1020J. How much mass would have to be converted to energy to fuel this need?
