Answer:

Momentum is increased by approximately 1.5%

Explanation:

They're related as

K = p²/(2 m)

From above

p2/p1 = sqrt(K2/K1)

p2/p1 - 1 = sqrt(K2/K1) - 1

∆p = p1 × [sqrt(K2/K1) - 1]

= 100% × [sqrt(103%/100%) - 1]

≈ 1.5%

The momentum will increase by 1.5 %.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the body is given as

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Here m is the mass and v is the velocity.

The momentum of a body is given as

P = mv

so,

K = \frac{1}{2m} (mv)^2

K=\frac{P^2}{2m}

Now for small changes,

\frac{\Delta K}{K} =\frac{2\Delta P}{P}                   (as mass remains unchanged)

Given \frac{\Delta K}{K} =3\%

Substitute the value, we get

3\% =\frac{2\Delta P}{P}

\frac{\Delta P}{P}=\frac{3\%}{2}=1.5\%

Thus, momentum will increase by 1.5 %.
