$A$ bomb initially at rest explodes by itself into three equal mass fragments. The velocities of two fragments are $(1\hat{i}+3\hat{j}) \ m/s$ and $(2\hat{i}-4\hat{j}) \ m/s$. The velocity of the third fragment (in $m/s$) is

Explain the conservation of linear momentum with a suitable example.

An explosion breaks a rock into three parts in a horizontal plane. Two of them go off at right angles to each other. The first part of mass $1 \, kg$ moves with a speed of $12 \, m s^{-1}$ and the second part of mass $2 \, kg$ moves with $8 \, m s^{-1}$ speed. If the third part flies off with $4 \, m s^{-1}$ speed,then its mass is ......... $kg$.

$A$ shell of mass $20 \,kg$ at rest explodes into two fragments whose masses are in the ratio $2 : 3$. The smaller fragment moves with a velocity of $6 \,ms^{-1}$. The kinetic energy of the larger fragment is (in $\,J$)

The principle of conservation of linear momentum can be strictly applied during a collision between two particles provided the time of impact is

Neglecting friction,if a person sitting at the back of a motorcycle moving on a straight path falls off while the motorcycle is in motion,will the velocity of the motorcycle increase or decrease? Why?
