Questions in final

Homework Statement

I just gave my physics final and i want to confirm if my answers are correct
the kinetic energy of a particle is increased by factor 4 how much will linear momentum will increase show mathematical steps
how much is the power output of the engine of a 1000 kg car can go from 36km/h to 108km/h in 10 seconds.
two bodies of mass 2 kg and 5 kg are placed separated by 40cm in air.Assuming the force acting on them are due to gravitational interaction,calculate their frequencies

I really cant recall what I wrote in those questions..but my answer to the last one was that both bodies are freely falling so gravitational acceleration will be the acceleration of both the bodies
and in the first one may anwer was that momentum increases 4 times

The last one is confusing to me. I don't actually understand the question, but it does ask to calculate frequencies and your answer does not give a frequency.

For the first one, no, it will not increase 4 times. You need to use the equations for kinetic energy and momentum, and work with those equations.

$$K = \frac{p^{2}}{2m}$$

Well we have to find the acclerations not the frequencies..sorry,a tryping mistake..whta about the second question?

If you calculate the force on the two masses, you can get the accelerations.
