What happens to the momentum of the body when velocity is doubled and mass is halved?
Given: velocity is doubled and mass is halved
To find: What happens to momentum?
Solution:
Mathematically, momentum = Mass $ \times $ Velocity
Let the initial momentum be 'mv'.
But given that, velocity is doubled and mass is halved.
Therefore, new momentum = $\frac{mass }{ 2} \times (2\times velocity)$
= mv
Hence the momentum of the body would remains the same.
