(a) The momentum of the proton is determined as 5.17 x 10⁻¹⁸ kgm/s.

(b) The speed of the proton is determined as  3.1 x 10⁹ m/s.

<h3>Momentum of the proton</h3>

The momentum of the proton is calculated as follows;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

where;

  • m is mass of proton = 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ kg
  • v is speed of the proton = ?
<h3>Speed of the proton</h3>

v² = 2K.E/m

v² = (2 x 50 x 10⁹ x 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)/(1.67 x 10⁻²⁷)

v² = 9.6 x 10¹⁸

v = 3.1 x 10⁹ m/s

<h3>Momentum of the proton</h3>

P = mv = (1.67 x10⁻²⁷ x 3.1 x 10⁹) = 5.17 x 10⁻¹⁸ kgm/s
