35. Special Relativity
35. Special Relativity / Inertial Reference Frames / Problem 1
When ignoring the antineutrino, the simplified equation for the decay of Cobalt-60, which is initially at rest, into Nickel-60 can be written as:
60Co → 60Ni + e⁻
Formulate an equation that represents the conservation of relativistic momentum for this decay equation. Your equation should be written in the units of speed (v).
