A) a particle of rest mass m is travelling so that its total energy is 2me2. it collides with a stationary particle of rest mass m to form a new single particle. what is the rest mass of the new particle? 9 marks b) a photon hits an electron at rest and produces an electron-positron pair according to the reaction γ + e-→ e-t-e-+ et, what is the smallest possible photon energy for this to occur? you may assume that electrons and positrons have equal masses. 8 marks c) a photon rocket uses pure radiation as the propellant. if the initial and final rest masses of the rocket are m, and m, show that the final speed v of the rocket, as measured in its initial rest frame, sat isfies m, 8 marks hint: if the total momentum of all photons emitted from the rocket has magnitude p then the total energy of all those photons is ecial to

Atank has a shape of a cone with a radius at the top of 2 m and a height of 5 m. the tank also has a 1 m spout at the top of the tank. the tank is filled with water up to a height of 2 m. find the work needed to pump all the water out the top of the spout. (use 9.8 m/s2 for g and the fact that the density of water is 1000 kg/m3.)
