When undergoing a collision, a photon can actually produce an electron and a positron.
This is called "pair production". Calculate the minimum energy of the photon in eV for
which pair production can occur. What is the corresponding speed of the photon? The
only fundamental constants you are allowed to use are:
mass of electron : 9.10938188E-31 kg
e=1.6E-19 C
c=3.0E8 m/s.
