An electron and a positron, each having kinetic energy of 0.49 MeV, annihilate after coming to rest in vacuum. Assume that the electron and positron are moving in opposite direction and after annihilation two gamma photons having equal energy are produced. If rest mass energy of electron and position is equal and each have rest mass energy 0.511 MeV, then energy of each gamma photon is nearly

A
0.49 MeV
B
1 MeV
