I'm having a hard time getting used to expressing quantities in electron-volt equivalent units.
Masses and energies expressed as MeV/c2 are confusing, but manageable.
But I seem to have a complete mental block over momentum as MeV/c. It's easy enough to look at a table & see that 1 MeV/c = 5.344 x 10-22 kg-m/s, but could someone please walk me (or drag me ) through the derivation of that conversion?
