4. In experiments, physicists routinely accelerate protons to speeds quite close to the speed of light. The mass of a proton is
(a) Calculate the proton's momentum, according to Newton's definition.
(b) Calculate the proton's relativistic momentum.
(c) Determine the ratio of the relativistic momentum to the Newtonian momentum.
Step 1 :Given the mass of the proton (m) as
Step 2 :Calculate the Newtonian momentum (p) using the formula
Step 3 :Calculate the relativistic momentum (p_{rel}) using the formula
Step 4 :Determine the ratio between the relativistic momentum and the Newtonian momentum as
Step 5 :
Step 6 :
Step 7 :
