2 Cosmic Ray A cosmic-ray particle has been observed (indirectly) with an estimated energy of 16 J, or about 102⁰ eV.* Suppose this particle was a proton (me² ≈ 10⁹ eV). (a) What was the velocity of the proton relative to the earth? Warning! Most calculators do not carry around enough digits to give an answer other than u = c, but this is not the speed of the particle. Express your result in terms of the fractional difference between the velocity of the particle and the velocity of light: c=2=D=1-8 (b) The Milky Way is about 105 light years across. If a photon and this proton raced across the galaxy, by what distance would the photon win the race, as measured by an observer at rest with respect to the galaxy? (c) How long would it take the proton to cross our galaxy, as measured by a clock carried along with the proton?
