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 ......... $kg$.

$A$ bomb of mass $16 \,kg$ explodes into two pieces of masses $4 \,kg$ and $12 \,kg$. The velocity of the $12 \,kg$ mass is $4 \,ms^{-1}$. The kinetic energy of the second piece (the $4 \,kg$ piece) is: (in $\,J$)

$A$ stationary body explodes into three pieces. The momenta of two pieces are $2p\,\hat{i}$ and $p\,\hat{j}$ respectively,where $p$ is a positive constant. The third piece will have:

$A$ system of $N$ particles is free from any external forces. Which of the following is true for the magnitude of the total momentum of the system?

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

$A$ projectile is fired with velocity $u$ at an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. At the highest point of its trajectory,it splits into three segments of masses $m, m$,and $2m$. The first part falls vertically downward with zero initial velocity,and the second part returns via the same path to the point of projection. The velocity of the third part of mass $2m$ just after the explosion will be:
