JEE MAIN - Physics (2022 - 30th June Morning Shift - No. 7)
Two bodies A and B of masses 5 kg and 8 kg are moving such that the momentum of body B is twice that of the body A. The ratio of their kinetic energies will be :
4 : 5
2 : 5
5 : 4
5 : 2
Explanation
Given,
Mass of body A = 5 kg
Mass of body B = 8 kg
Momentum of body B is twice that of body A,
$$\therefore$$ $${P_B} = 2{P_A}$$
We know,
Kinetic Energy $$(K) = {{{P^2}} \over {2m}}$$
$$\therefore$$ $${{{K_A}} \over {{K_B}}} = {\left( {{{{P_A}} \over {{P_B}}}} \right)^2} \times {{{m_B}} \over {{m_A}}}$$
$$ = {\left( {{1 \over 2}} \right)^2} \times {8 \over 5}$$
$$ = {1 \over 4} \times {8 \over 5}$$
$$ = {2 \over 5}$$
