Answer Key : (b) -

(b)

Since the body explodes into three equal parts, therefore

Let the velocity of the third part be According to the principle of conservation of linear momentum,

Momentum of system before explosion=Momentum of system after explosion

Or 

Or

or ) m/s

Average force acting on the third particle is



Next Question :

Five balls are placed one after the other along a straight line as shown in the figure. Initially, all the balls are at rest. Then the second ball has been projected with speed  towards the third ball. Mark the correct statements. (Assume all collisions to be head-on and elastic)

a)

Total number of collisions in the process is 5

b)

Velocity of separation between the first and fifth ball after the last possible collision is

c)

Finally, three balls remain stationary

d)

All of the above
