    Relativistic particle moving in a potential

    Since energy is conserved and the particle is initially at rest, we can determine that ##E(0) = m_0 c^2##, so $$ m_0 c^2 = \sqrt{ c^2 p^2 + m_0^2 c^4 } + \alpha x. $$ Squaring this eqation gives $$ m_0^2 c^4 = \alpha^2 x^2 + c^2 p^2 + m_0^2 c^4 + 2 \alpha x \sqrt{ c^2 p^2 + m_0^2 c^4 }...

    Is My Solution to This Exact Differential Equation Correct?

    (x cos(y) + x2 +y ) dx = - (x + y2 - (x2)/2 sin y ) dy I integrated both sides 1/2x2cos(y) + 1/3 x3+xy = -xy - 1/3y3+x2cos(y) Then I get x3 + 6xy + y3 = 0 Am I doing the calculations correctly? Do I need to solve it in another way?
