Momentum p = ( m v )
 
where m is mass and v is velocity
 
Kinetic energy E = (1/2) m v2  = (1/2) begin mathsize 14px style left parenthesis space m space v space right parenthesis squared over m end style = begin mathsize 14px style fraction numerator p squared over denominator 2 m end fraction end style
Kinetic energy E = begin mathsize 14px style fraction numerator p squared over denominator 2 m end fraction end style   ........................(1)
if we differentiate above expression, we get
 
begin mathsize 14px style increment E space equals open parentheses fraction numerator 2 space p over denominator 2 m end fraction close parentheses space increment p end style ..............................(2)
 
where change in kinetic energy is given as ΔE and change in momentum is given as Δp
 
By dividing eqn.(2) by eqn.(1)
 
(ΔE/E)   = 2 ( Δp / p )
 
Hence if momentum decreases by 30% , kinetic energy decreases by 60%
