MCQ
When the speed of a moving body is doubled
- AIts acceleration is doubled
- ✓Its momentum is doubled
- CIts kinetic energy is doubled
- DIts potential energy is doubled
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
Its momentum is doubled
b
(b) Its momentum gets doubled. momentum is mass times speed $p=m v$
(b) Its momentum gets doubled. momentum is mass times speed $p=m v$
Therefore when speed is doubled, momentum $'p'$ gets doubled. $p^{\prime}=2 p$
