$A$ free body of mass $8 \, kg$ is travelling at $2 \, m/s$ in a straight line. At a certain instant,the body splits into two equal parts due to an internal explosion which releases $16 \, J$ of energy. Neither part leaves the original line of motion. Finally:

  • A
    Both parts continue to move in the same direction as that of the original body.
  • B
    One part comes to rest and the other moves in the same direction as that of the original body.
  • C
    One part comes to rest and the other moves in the direction opposite to that of the original body.
  • D
    One part moves in the same direction and the other in the direction opposite to that of the original body.
