Two skaters $A$ and $B$ of weights in the ratio $5 : 7$ start facing each other $6\,metres$ apart on a horizontal smooth surface. They pull on a rope stretched between them. How far has each moved when they meet?
Both have moved $3\,m$
$A$ moves $4\,m$ and $B$ moves $2\,m$
$A$ moves $2.5\,m$ and $B$ moves $3.5\,m$
$A$ moves $3.5\,m$ and $B$ moves $2.5\,m$
Law of conservation of linear momentum is derived by using Newton’s which laws ?
A bomb is projected with $200\,m/s$ at an angle $60^o$ with horizontal. At the highest point, it explodes into three particles of equal masses. One goes vertically upward with velocity $100\,m/sec$, second particle goes vertically downward with the same velocity as the first. Then what is the velocity of the third one-
Explain conservation of linear momentum by suitable example.
A spacecraft of mass $M$ moves with velocity $V$ in free space at first, then it explodes breaking into two pieces. If after explosion a piece of mass $m$ comes to rest, the other piece of spacecraft will have a velocity
A shell of mass $0.020\; kg$ is fired by a gun of mass $100\; kg$. If the muzzle speed of the shell is $80 \;m s^{-1}$, what is the recoil speed in $m/s$ of the gun ?
