JEE Main Physics question
A stationary bomb explodes into three pieces. One piece of 2 kg mass moves with a velocity of 8 ms⁻¹ at right angles to one of the other pieces of mass 1 kg moving with a velocity of 12 ms⁻¹. If the mass of the third piece is 0.5 kg, then its velocity is
Answer: (D)
Solution
The two known momenta, 2×8=16 and 1×12=12 kg·ms⁻¹, are mutually perpendicular, so their
