Show that if an elephant and a mosquito have equal kinetic energy of translation then the elephant has larger momentum

 

 …… (2)From equation (2) we observed that, momentum of a particle (p) is directly proportional to the mass of the particle (m).Since both the light and the heavy object have equal kinetic energy, therefore heavier one has the larger momentum_k) by the relation,P = √2mE_kHeavy object has the larger momentum.Momentum of a particle (p) depends on the kinetic energy of that particle (E  RegardsArun (askIITians forum expert)
