A trolley of mass M is at rest over a smooth horizontal surface as shown in figure. Two boys each of mass 'm' are standing over the trolley. They jump from the trolley (towards right) with relative velocity `v_r` [relative to velocity of trolley just after jumping]
(a) together
(b) one after the other.
Find velocity of trolley in both cases.

Two boys each of mass 40 kg are standing on the right side of a trolley of mass 80 kg , initially at rest on smooth floor. The boys jumps to the right with velocity 3 m//s with respect to the trolley before the jump. Find the final velocity of the trolley if the jumps : (a) together , (b) one after the other and (c ) one boy is on the left and the other on the right , the boy on the left jumps to the left and then the boy on the right jumps to the right. Each boy jumps with 3 m//s with respect to the trolley before the jump.
