If a shell fired from a cannon explodes in mid-air,then:

State the law of conservation of momentum.

$A$ rifleman,who together with his rifle has a mass of $100\,kg$,stands on a smooth surface and fires $10$ shots horizontally. Each bullet has a mass of $10\,g$ and a muzzle velocity of $800\,ms^{-1}$. The velocity which the rifleman attains after firing $10$ shots is $..........\,ms^{-1}$.

$A$ body at rest breaks into three fragments. Two fragments of equal mass fly off perpendicular to each other with a speed of $30 \; m/s$. The mass of the third fragment is three times that of the other two fragments. What will be the direction and magnitude of the velocity of the third fragment immediately after the explosion?

Why is the law of conservation of linear momentum considered fundamental and universal?

$A$ bomb of mass $30 \, kg$ at rest explodes into two pieces of masses $18 \, kg$ and $12 \, kg$. The velocity of the $18 \, kg$ mass is $6 \, m/s$. The kinetic energy of the other mass is ....... $J$.
