Homework Statement
Ok so I am given the masses of D meson, pi meson and K meson and told that a D meson at rest decays into a K meson and pi meson. Told to calculate the energy and velocity of the pi meson..
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
well i know you have to use conservation of 4 momentum..
so energy before = total energy after..and i know that the momenta of the pi and K meson after the collision are equal and opposite, but i can't see how to use this to get total energy of pi meson..:S
any tips?
