Question

The Proton Synchrotron particle accelerator at the CERN facility can accelerate protons to energies of 28.0 GeV (gigaelectron volts). 
What is this energy in joules?  A top marathon runner might have a mass of 75.5 kg and can run at an average speed of 4.85 m/s. This gives the runner an average kinetic energy of 888 J. What is this energy in electron volts?
