How do I find the velocity that an electron must acquire, if its mass is to be equal to the rest mass of a proton?
I know that the masses of electron and proton are 9.11 X 10^-31 kg and 1.67 X 10^-27 kg, respectively.
Am I going to use the formula m = m_0 / (1 - v^2/c^2)^(1/2) ?
How do I continue from here?
