if the mass of the body is increased three times,how much velocity should be reduced so that the kinetic enery reamins the same ?
Let the initial velocity be u and new velocity be v
KE = 1/2 m u2
New KE = 1/2 (3m) v2
Now
1/2mu2= 3/2mv2
v = u / √3
So, v / u = 1/ √3
Vlocity should be reduced to 1/√3 times of initial value.
