if the k.e of a particle is zero ,what is its linear momentum? If the total energy of the particle is 0 ,is its linear momentum necessarily 0?
dear syed if kinetic energy is 0 then there will be no linear velocity hence no linear momentam ... now total energy = sum of energy possed by particle =KE + PE + heat energy so on consider if there is only potential energy & kinetic energy then Total energy = 0 = KE+PE KE = -PE ............1 from eq 1 it can be said that if PE is equal to KE but with -ve PE then particle may have KE & hence linear momentam... eg => if we throw a mass M from surface of earth to infinity then its total energy should be zero .... TE = PE + KE = 0 KE = GMMe/R ............2 hence particle will have linear momentam.....

=KE + PE + heat energy so on
consider if there is only potential energy & kinetic energy then
Total energy = 0 = KE+PE
KE = -PE ............1
from eq 1 it can be said that if PE is equal to KE but with -ve PE then particle may have KE & hence linear momentam...
