Three particles of masses `20g`, `30g` and `40g` are initially moving along the positive direction of the three coordinate axes respectively with the same velocity of `20cm//s`. When due to their mutual interaction, the first particle comes to rest, the second acquires a velocity `(10hati+20hatk)cm//s`. What is then the velocity of the third particle?

Answer» Correct Answer - A::B::C
`p_i=p_f`
`:. (20)(20hati)+30(20hatj)+40(20hatk)`
`=(20)(0)+30(10hati+20hatk)+40v`
Solving this equation we get,
`v=(2.5hati+15hatj+5hatk)cm//s`
