If the momentum of a body is increased n times, its kinetic energy increases

A

n times

B

2n times

C

`sqrtn` times

D

`n^(2)` times

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`E=(P^(2))/(2m) therefore E prop P^(2)`
i.e. if P is increased n times then E will increase n2 times.
