    If the kinetic energy of a body becomes four times, then its momentum will be :

    A) \[{{p}_{new}}=3{{p}_{initial}}\]                

    B) \[{{p}_{new}}=4{{p}_{initial}}\]

    C) \[{{p}_{new}}=2{{p}_{initial}}\]                

    D) \[{{p}_{new}}={{p}_{initial}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    The relation between kinetic energy (K) and momentum (p) is \[p=\sqrt{2mK}\]where m is mass of body. \[\therefore \]  \[{{\left( \frac{{{p}_{2}}}{{{p}_{1}}} \right)}^{2}}=\frac{{{K}_{2}}}{{{K}_{1}}}=4\] Hence,     \[{{p}_{2}}=2{{p}_{1}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{P}_{new}}={{P}_{initial}}\]
