    A mass m falls freely from rest. The linear momentum after it has fallen through a height h is: (g = acceleration due to gravity)

    A)  \[\sqrt{mgh}\]                                

    B)  \[m\sqrt{2gh}\]

    C)  \[m\sqrt{gh}\]                                

    D)  zero

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                     When the body is falling freely from height h, then from third equation of motion \[{{v}^{2}}-{{u}^{2}}=2gh\]                                          \[(\because \,u=0)\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{v}^{2}}=2gh\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2gh}\] Now, linear momentum of body is given \[p=m\text{ }v\] From Eqs.(i) and (ii) Momentum \[=m\sqrt{2gh}\]
