This section is part of the HSC Physic syllabus Module 7: Nature of Light under Light and Special Relativity.
Let’s learn to describe the consequences and applications of relativistic momentum and the limitation on the maximum velocity of a particle imposed by special relativity.
We know the tradition kinematic form of momentum is:
p=mvSimilarly for relativistic momentum:
p = \frac{ mv} {\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}}Â ÂAnd after some calculations we can also achieve the momentum and energy equation:
E^2 = (pc)^2 + (mc^2)^2Â Â
