A bomb of mass 9 kg initially at rest explodes into two pieces of masses 3 kg and 6 kg. If the kinetic energy of 3 kg mass is 216J, then the velocity of 6kg mass will be (1) 4 m/s (2) 3 m/s (3) 2 m/s (4) 6 m/s

Answer»

(4) 6 m/s

Using conservation of momentum

M1V1 = M2 V2

3 x V1 = 6 x V2 ........ (i)

1/2 x 3 x v21 = 216

⇒ V1 = 12 m/s ; 

V2 = 6 m/s
