An initially stationary device lying on a frictionless floor explodes into two pieces and slides acros the floor. One piece is moving in

Answer»

positive y-direction
negative y-direction
negative x-direction
at angle from x-direction

Solution :From LAW of CONSERVATION of momentum,
`p_(i)=p_(F)`
and initial momentum, `p_(i)=m u=m(0)=0`
`:. p_(f)` should also be zero.
Hence, other piece will move in negative x-direction.
