$A$ shell initially at rest explodes into two pieces of equal mass. Then the two pieces will:

  • A
    Be at rest
  • B
    Move with different velocities in different directions
  • C
    Move with the same velocity in opposite directions
  • D
    Move with the same velocity in same direction

An explosion breaks a rock into three parts in a horizontal plane. Two of them go off at right angles to each other. The first part of mass $1 \, kg$ moves with a speed of $12 \, m s^{-1}$ and the second part of mass $2 \, kg$ moves with $8 \, m s^{-1}$ speed. If the third part flies off with $4 \, m s^{-1}$ speed,then its mass is ......... $kg$.

$A$ body of mass $5 \ kg$ initially at rest explodes into three fragments. The ratio of the masses of the three fragments is $1 : 1 : 3$. The two fragments of equal mass move in mutually perpendicular directions with a velocity of $21 \ m/s$. What is the velocity of the heaviest fragment in $m/s$?
