Question

For constant non zero mass, momentum versus velocity graph is a:

• A. straight line parallel to x- axis
• B. straight line parallel to y- axis
• C. straight line passing through origin
• D. straight line passing through y- axis with an intercept

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

straight line passing through origin

We know that,
Momentum = mass $\times$ velocity
So, we know that when a graph is plotted, momentum against velocity, it is a straight line passing through the origin because momentum varies linearly with respect to velocity.
