If the kinetic energy of a body is increased by 44%, then the momentum of the body increases by 20%.
The relationship between kinetic energy and momentum is given by the equation:
KE = 1/2 * m * v^2
where KE is the kinetic energy, m is the mass of the body, and v is the velocity of the body.
The momentum of the body is given by the equation:
p = m * v
where p is the momentum.
If we increase the kinetic energy of the body by 44%, then the velocity of the body will increase by 22%.
The momentum of the body is proportional to the velocity of the body, so the momentum of the body will also increase by 22%.
In other words, the percentage increase in momentum is equal to half of the percentage increase in kinetic energy.
So, if the kinetic energy of a body is increased by 44%, then the momentum of the body increases by 20%.
