$A$ particle of mass $m_1$ moves with velocity $v_1$ and another particle of mass $m_2$ moves with velocity $v_2$. Both have the same momentum,but their kinetic energies are $E_1$ and $E_2$ respectively. If $m_1 > m_2$,then:

  • A
    $E_1 < E_2$
  • B
    $\frac{E_1}{E_2} = \frac{m_1}{m_2}$
  • C
    $E_1 > E_2$
  • D
    $E_1 = E_2$
