Given information
Given a proton and its wavelength is within 1.0% of its true value. We are asked to find the kinetic energy for which the rest energy of a proton can be ignored when calculating its wavelength. We are also asked to find the corresponding wavelength and speed of the proton.
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
We have;
Let be the original wavelength and be the approximated wavelength.
We have,
