If v,P\mathrm{v}, \mathrm{P} and K\mathrm{K} denote the velocity, momentum and kinetic energy of a particle then
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
P=dK/dt\mathrm{P}=\mathrm{dK} / \mathrm{dt}
Option A (P=dK/dv\mathrm{P}=\mathrm{dK} / \mathrm{dv}) is incorrect. Option B (P=dK/dt\mathrm{P}=\mathrm{dK} / \mathrm{dt}) is also incorrect. The correct answer is not among the options provided. However, if we consider the relation between Kinetic Energy (K) and momentum (P), we have K=P22mK = \frac{{P^2}}{{2m}}. Therefore, P=2mKP = \sqrt{{2mK}}. Differentiating K with respect to v, we get dKdv=mv=P\frac{{dK}}{{dv}} = mv = P. So, the closest correct answer would be A, but it should be dKdv=P\frac{{dK}}{{dv}} = P.
