$A$ body of mass $5 \,kg$ explodes at rest into three fragments with masses in the ratio $1 : 1 : 3$. The fragments with equal masses fly in mutually perpendicular directions with speeds of $21 \,m/s$. The velocity of the heaviest fragment will be

  • A
    $3\sqrt{2} \,m/s$
  • B
    $5\sqrt{2} \,m/s$
  • C
    $\sqrt{2} \,m/s$
  • D
    $7\sqrt{2} \,m/s$
