In this lesson, we will learn how to detect exoplanets using transit photometry and determine properties of the exoplanet using data collected using this method.
Students will be able to
Q1:
The amount of energy needed to create a tauon–antitauon pair is 3,560 MeV. An electron has a rest mass of 511/𝑐keV. How many times more massive is a tauon than an electron? Give your answer to the nearest integer.
Q2:
A spaceship has a rest mass of 10,000 metric tons. What is its rest mass energy? Answer in scientific notation.
Q3:
If a metal sphere has a rest mass energy of 4.5×10 J, what is its rest mass? Give your answer to one decimal place.
