In an elastic collision, both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. We are given that a proton undergoes a head-on elastic collision with a particle of unknown mass initially at rest, and after the collision, the proton rebounds with 16/25 of its initial kinetic energy.

Let the mass of the proton be mpm_p, the mass of the unknown particle be mxm_x, and the initial velocity of the proton be upu_p. Initially, the unknown particle is at rest, so ___ _____ ___ _____ _________ ___ ___ _______ __________ ___ ______ ___.
