Apr 30, 2016 at 15:16 | comment | added | Bruno KM | I guess, when I was trying to use either formula, I did not account for relativistic effects when calculating momentum then? I was just using a deduced formula $p=m\sqrt{2mE}$. Relativity isn't really a part of our curriculum, so I am guessing that it is where my confusion came from :) | |
