Answer:
The linear momentum is given by the following equation:
(1)
Where is the mass and the velocity.
On the other hand, the kinetic energy is given by:
(2)
Which is the same as:
Now, if we double the kinetic energy, equation (2) changes to:
(3)
So, if we want to obtain the kinetic energy as shown in (3), the only option that works is increasing momentum by a factor of or :
Applying this in (2):
>>>As we can see, this equation is the same as equation (3)
Therefore, the correct answer is B
