Question
Chapter 30, Problem 91A
To determine
To Make: A sketch to show decay of electron-positron pair into 3 gamma rays.
Expert Solution & Answer

Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
As per law of conservation of momentum, the total final momentum of the products is equal to total initial momentum of reactants.
Since the electron-positron are initially at rest, the three gamma rays will have total momentum to be zero would be at
