A man of mass `60kg` jumps from a trolley of mass `20kg` standing on smooth surface with absolute velocity `3m//s`. Find velocity of trolley and total energy produced by man.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`m_1v_1=m_2v_2` (in opposite direction)
`:. (60)(3)=(20)v_2`
`:. v_2=9m//s`
`KE=1/2xx60xx(3)^2+1/2xx20xx(9)^2`
`=1080J=1.08kJ`
