Electrons moving in a beam have the same de Broglie wavelength as protons in a separate beam moving at a speed of 2.8 × 10^4 m/s . What is the speed of the electrons?

de Broglie wavelength formula:
λ = h/mv,
whereλ = wavelength,h = Planck's Constant = 6.626 x 10-34 Js,m = mass of object,v = object's velocity,
Mass of proton mp = 1.6...

Find the general solution of the equation tan(2x + pi/2) = SQRT(3), giving your answer for x in terms of π in a simplified form.

Assume y = 2x + pi/2,
Since the period of 'tangent' is pi, the general solution of 'y' to valid the equation of tan(y) = SQRT(3) is the form of y = npi+pi/3 where 'n' is any positive or negative...
