A stationary shell breaks into three fragments. The momentum of two of the fragments is P each and move at `60^(@)` to each other. The momentum of the third fragment is

A

P

B

2P

C

`(P)/(sqrt3)`

D

`sqrt3P`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`barP_(3)=-(barP_(1)+bar_(2)),p_(3)=sqrt(p_(1)^(2)+p_(2)^(2)+2p_(1)p_(2)cos theta)`
