5.Work, Energy, Power and Collision
normal
A body moving with speed $v$ in space explodes into two piece of masses in the ratio $1 : 3.$ If the smaller piece comes to rest, the speed of the other piece is
A
$4v$
B
$v$
C
$\frac{4v}{3}$
D
$\frac{3v}{4}$
Solution
$\mathrm{mu}=\mathrm{m}_{1} \mathrm{v}_{1}+\mathrm{m}_{2} \mathrm{v}_{2}$
$\mathrm{mv}=0+\frac{3}{4} \mathrm{mv}_{2} \Rightarrow \mathrm{v}_{2}=\frac{4 \mathrm{v}}{3}$
