Two persons of mass $m_1$ and $m_2$ are standing at the two ends $A$ and $B$ respectively,of a trolley of mass $M$ as shown. When the person standing at $A$ jumps from the trolley towards the left with $u_{rel}$ with respect to the trolley,then:

  • A
    the trolley moves towards the right
  • B
    the trolley rebounds with velocity $\frac{m_1 u_{rel}}{m_1 + m_2 + M}$
  • C
    the centre of mass of the system remains stationary
  • D
    all the above

$A$ bomb of mass $16 \ kg$ at rest explodes into two fragments of masses $4 \ kg$ and $12 \ kg$. The velocity of the $12 \ kg$ fragment is $4 \ m/s$. What is the kinetic energy of the other fragment in $J$?

An object of mass $2m$ is projected with a speed of $100 \ m/s$ at an angle $\theta = \sin^{-1}(3/5)$ to the horizontal. At the highest point,the object breaks into two pieces of same mass $m$ and the first one comes to rest. The distance between the point of projection and the point of landing of the second piece (in metres) is $(g = 10 \ m/s^2)$.

At high altitude,a body at rest explodes into two equal fragments,with one fragment receiving a horizontal velocity of $10 \, m/s$. The time taken by the two radius vectors connecting the point of explosion to the fragments to make an angle of $90^o$ is ............ $s$.
