If the momentum of a body is increased $n$ times, its kinetic energy increases

A

$n$ times

B

$2n$ times

C

$\sqrt n $times

D

${n^2}$ times

If the momentum of a body is increased $n$ times, its kinetic energy increases

$E = \frac{{{P^2}}}{{2m}}$

$E \propto {P^2}$

i.e. if $P$ is increased $n$ times then $E$ will increase $n^2$ times.
