This question is for modern physics and wave and particle:
(a) To how small a region must an electron be confined for borderline relativistic speeds – say, 0.05c – to become reasonably likely? (Ans: 3.9×10^−12m ) (b) On the basis of this, would you expect relativistic effects to be prominent for hydrogen’s electron, which has an orbit radius near 10-10? For a lead atom “inner-shell” electron of orbit radius 10-12m?

Using the given charge-to-mass ratios for electrons andprotons, and knowing the magnitudes of their charges areequal, what is the ratio of the proton’s mass to the electron’s?(Note that since the charge-to-mass ratios are given to onlythree-digit accuracy, your answer may differ from theaccepted ratio in the fourth digit.)
