4-1.Newton's Laws of Motion
easy

A body is projected at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal with momentum $p$. At its highest point, the magnitude of the momentum is

A

$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\,p$

B

$\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\,p$

C

$p$

D

$\frac{p}{2}$

Solution

(a)

At highest point velocity will remain $v \cos 30^{\circ}$ or $\frac{\sqrt{3}\,v}{2}$. Therefore, momentum will also remain $\frac{\sqrt{3}\,p}{2}$.
