The momentum of a particle is p. The kineticenergy of the particle is doubled. The momentum is now square root of 2p.. kindly explain how to get this p=m*v p - The momentum of a particle m- mass of a particle v- velocity E=m*v^2/2 E - The kinetic energy E=m*(p/m)^2/2=p^2/(2m) p=sqrt(2E*m) p1=sqrt(2E1*m) p2=sqrt(2E2*m) p2/p1=sqrt(E2/E1) If E2/E1=2 p2=p1*sqrt(2)
