As we know, momentum of a body = m x v

where m=mass of the body

v= velocity of the body

Kinetic energy of a body= mv2/2

We are given m1= 1kg  and m2= 4kg

Also we are given that the momentum is same for both the bodies.

Let the velocity of m1 be vand m2 be v2

so mx v1 = m2 x v2

1 x v1= 4 x v2

v= 4v2         - (1)

K.E.1= v12/2    and K.E.2= 4v22/2

Using equation (1)

K.E.1/ K.E.2= (16v22/2)/ (4v22/2)

= 4:1

K.E.  = p2/ 2m

Where p will be same for both the bodies .. 

And putting the values of 'm'..  We will get the answer
