Homework Statement
This is not really homework, I am trying to understand relativity and I suppose my question is too simple to post in other forums.
I took the following data from the Cern site when they reached 7TeV:
2. Relevant data
Ek = 7 Tev (1.6926*1027 Hz)
B = 8.33 T
RLch = 4243 00 cm
Ep(m) = 0.938 GeV = 2,2685 * 1023 Hz (= 1,67 *10-24 g)
β= 0.999 999 991 c : I'm not sure how many 9 should be there. Can you show me how to find it?
Relativistic mass: can we find the mass increase only if we know v/c?
[tex]M+ = \frac{1} {\sqrt (1-β^2)}[/tex]
Has this curve got a name? is it similar to sec α?
Could someone plot the two curves together in a graph, please?
Can I find the exact value of the mass increase just dividing Ek by Ep:
M+ = 7000/0.938 = 7461 rest masses ?
