9. In an experiment to measure the mass of the negative K meson (kaon) the photon energy for the transition from the eight to the seventh orbit in kaonic gold (a kaon + a gold nucleus with 79 protons) is determined to be 395,264 eV. a) What is the kaon's mass? b) How fast is the kaon moving in the seventh orbit? c) What is the radius of the kaon's orbit for n=8?
