What if? physicists often measure the momentum of subatomic particles moving near the speed of light in units of mev/c, where c is the speed of light, and 1 mev = 1.6 ✕ 10−13 kg · m2/s2. based on this, what are the units of momentum for a high-speed subatomic particle in terms of fundamental si units?

Glass is transparent to visibile light under normal conditions; however, at extremely high intensities, glass will absorb most of the light incident upon it. this works through a process known as multiphoton absorption. in this process, several photons are absorbed at the same time. if very intense light whose photons carry 2ev of energy is shined onto a material with a band gap of 4ev, that light can be absorbed through two-photon absorption, because two photons have the right amount of energy to bridge the band gap. what is the minimum number of photons of 800-nm light that are needed to equal or exceed the band gap of fused silica glass
