$A$ particle of mass $4m$ explodes into three pieces of masses $m, m$ and $2m$. The equal masses move along the $X$-axis and $Y$-axis with velocities $4 \text{ ms}^{-1}$ and $6 \text{ ms}^{-1}$ respectively. The magnitude of the velocity of the heavier mass is

  • A
    $\sqrt{17} \text{ ms}^{-1}$
  • B
    $2\sqrt{13} \text{ ms}^{-1}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{13} \text{ ms}^{-1}$
  • D
    $\frac{\sqrt{13}}{2} \text{ ms}^{-1}$
