A body explodeds in mid - air. Does its momentum remain conserved ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether the momentum of a body that explodes in mid-air remains conserved, we can analyze the situation step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Scenario**: - We have a body that is initially at rest or moving in mid-air. When it explodes, it breaks into two or more parts. 2. **Identifying Forces**: ...
