The kinetic energy of a body is increased by 300%. The momentum of the body would increase by:

a
50%
b
100%
c
150%
d
300%

detailed solution

Correct option is B

KE = P22m       or P2 ∝ KE   ----(i)KE2= KE1+ (300100)KE1 = 4KE1From (i) P2P1 = KE2KE1 = 4KE11KE1 = 2It means momentum becomes twice, hence increase in momentum is 100%
