Question

A proton moving with a momentum $P_1$ has kinetic energy $\frac{1}{8}$ of its rest mass energy. Another light photon having energy equal to the kinetic energy of the proton possesses a momentum $P_2$. Then the ratio $\frac{P_1}{P_2}$ is equal to:

$4$

$\frac{1}{4}$

$\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{3}{4}$
