Snail velocity final problem
When given the momentum of a gamma ray photon, how do you find the velocity of a 200g snail? How can photons have momentum when they are massless?

Re: Snail velocity final problem
Do you remember the exact wording of the question? What info was given about the gamma ray? Would it have been possible to find E(photon) using E=hv and then using that as the Ek for the snail?
