Kinetic energy of a particle is increased by 4 times. What will be the relation between initial and final
momentum? [JIPMER 2018]

a
p2=2p1
b
p2=p1/2
c
p2=p1
d
p2=4p1

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Relation between kinetic energy and momentum isp1=2mK1∵  Kinetic energy is increased by 4 times, then  K2=4K1Hence,   p2=2mK2=2m4K1p2=22mK1 or p2=2p1
