Question

Two objects P and Q of masses ' m ' and ' 4m ' move with velocities ' v ' and ' 4v ' respectievly. calculate the ratio of their linear momentum ​

Answer 1

Answer:

p=mv

p=m and Q=4m

v1= v and v2 = 4v

so

P/Q = m/4m ×v/4v

=1/4× 1/4= 1

or 1:1

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

linear momentum of P = mv

linear momentum of Q = (4m)(4v) = 16mv

ratio of momentum = mv/16mv = 1/16

ratio of momentum of P and Q = 1 : 16
