Draw a Feynman diagram to represents annihilation of an electron and positron into a photon.
Added by Kimberly B.
Step 1
Draw two lines from the left side of the page to the center. These lines represent the paths of the electron and positron. Label the top line "e-" for electron and the bottom line "e+" for positron. Show more…

Draw a Feynman diagram for an electron-proton scattering, $e^{-}+p \rightarrow e^{-}+p$, mediated by photon exchange.
An electron and a positron collide head on, annihilate, and create two $0.755-$ MeV photons traveling in opposite directions. What were the initial kinetic energies of electron and positron?
