easy
A light and a heavy body have equal kinetic energy. Which one has a greater momentum ?
A
The light body
B
The heavy body
C
Both have equal momentum
D
It is not possible to say anything without additional information
Solution
(b)$P = \sqrt {2mE} $ if $E$ are equal then $P \propto \sqrt m $
i.e. heavier body will possess greater momentum.
