A moving body can be stopped by a force ...

A moving body can be stopped by a force `F` in time `t`. How much force will be needed to stop the body in half the time, when its momentum is doubled?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

As `F=("change in momentum")/("time taken")`, therefore,
when momentum is doubled and time is halved, force `F` needed would become 4 times.
