When a light-weight body and a massive body are acted upon by the same force for the same period of time, the
- massive body has a higher momentum.
- massive body builds up a higher velocity.
- lighter body has a higher momentum.
-
momenta of both bodies remain the same.
The correct answer is: D
Explanation
When a lightweight body and a massive body are acted upon by the same force for the same time, the momenta of both bodies remain the same.
Given that the momenta of both the heavy and light bodies are the same, it follows that the light body possesses a higher velocity compared to the heavy body.
