Thank you so much for your reply, I'm still not entirely sure about how to og about this. I think the formula used for the energy in my post above is the formula for the kinetic energy, and the formula for the total energy would be: Ek + mc2 = √(p^2 * c^2 + m^2*c^4) which turns into: Ek =...

Homework Statement A particle with charge e and mass m_0 is accelerated by a potential V to a relativistic speed. Show that the de Broglie wavelength is: λ = h / √(2 m_0 eV ) √(1+( eV / 2 m_0 c^2 )) Homework Equations E = qV λ = h/p E = √(p^2 * c^2 + m^2 * c^4 ) p = (m_0 * v) / (1 -...

Thanks for the welcome:) I actually didn't forget the μ, since μ = 0.1 and it was to be multiplied with g = 9.8 I just multiplied them before I started integrating. Anyways, does this look right? dv/dt = -0.98v dv/v = -0.98dt Integrate: ln(v)-ln(v0)=-0.98(t-t0) Clean up a...

Hello, first time here for me, I hope I posted in the right subforum. I have a task at hand, just started a new physics course, but sadly I am far from deft with mathematics, and my physics book is in a different language and uses different notation than I am used to. The part I am having...
