An initially stationary device lying on a frictionless floor explodes into two pieces and slides across the floor. If one piece is moving in the positive $x$ direction,then the other piece is moving in:

  • A
    Positive $y$ direction
  • B
    Negative $y$ direction
  • C
    Negative $x$ direction
  • D
    At an angle from the $x$ direction

$A$ ball is projected at $60^{\circ}$ from the horizontal at $200 \, m/s$. At the maximum height during its flight,it explodes into $3$ equal fragments. Out of these,one part travels at $100 \, m/s$ vertically up while another travels at $100 \, m/s$ vertically down. What will be the speed of the third part just after the explosion?

$A$ cannon ball is fired with a velocity $200 \, m/s$ at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. At the highest point of its flight,it explodes into $3$ equal fragments. One fragment goes vertically upwards with a velocity $100 \, m/s$,and the second one falls vertically downwards with a velocity $100 \, m/s$. The third fragment will be moving with a velocity:

$A$ man (mass $= 50\, kg$) and his son (mass $= 20\, kg$) are standing on a frictionless surface facing each other. The man pushes his son so that he starts moving at a speed of $0.70\, ms^{-1}$ with respect to the man. The speed of the man with respect to the surface is ........ $ms^{-1}$

$A$ 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

An isolated rail car of mass $M$ is moving along a straight,frictionless track at an initial speed $v_0$. The car is passing under a bridge when a crate filled with $N$ bowling balls,each of mass $m$,is dropped from the bridge into the bed of the rail car. The crate splits open and the bowling balls bounce around inside the rail car,but none of them fall out. What is the average speed of the rail car $+$ bowling balls system some time after the collision?
