Find the momentum and the kinetic energy


This is modern physics, not classical physics.

An electron and a proton are each accelerated starting from rest through a potential difference of 49.0million volts. Find the momentum (in MeV/c) and the kinetic energy (in MeV) of each, and compare with the results of using the classical formulas. (Give your answers to at least four significant figures.)
