Q.

When kinetic energy of a body becomes 36 times of its original value, the percentage increase in the momentum of the body will be                   [2024]

1 600%  
2 500%  
3 60%  
4 6%  

Ans.

(2)     

          Kinetic energy (K)=P22mP=2mK

          If Kf=36 Ki. So Pf=6 Pi

         % increase in momentum

         =Pf-PiPi×100%=6Pi-PiPi×100%=500%P%=500%
