Calculate the % increase in kinetic energy of a body if its linear momentum increases by 50 % .

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of calculating the percentage increase in kinetic energy when the linear momentum of a body increases by 50%, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between momentum and kinetic energy The kinetic energy (K) of a body is related to its momentum (p) by the formula: \[ K = \frac{p^2}{2m} \] where \(m\) is the mass of the body. ...
