    If the total energy of a particle is exactly twice of its rust energy then its speed in terms of me speed of light c is:

    A)  \[\frac{\sqrt{3c}}{2}\]    

    B)                         c                            

    C)  \[\frac{3c}{4}\]                

    D)         \[\frac{c}{2}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Energy is given by the relation \[E=m{{c}^{2}}\]                                               ?(i) \[E=2{{m}_{0}}{{c}^{2}}=\frac{2{{m}_{0}}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{{{v}^{2}}}{{{c}^{2}}}}}\]                 ?(ii) By equation (i) and (ii), we get \[\sqrt{1-\frac{{{v}^{2}}}{{{c}^{2}}}}=\frac{1}{2},\]            so,  \[v=\frac{\sqrt{3}c}{2}\]
