A shell of mass m moving with velocity v suddenly breaks into 2 pieces. The part having mass m /4 remains stationary. The velocity of the other shell will be

A

v

B

2v

C

`(3)/(4)v`

D

`(4)/(3)v`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D


According to conservation of momentum
`mv= ((m)/(4)) v_(1) + ((3m)/(4)) v_(2) rArr v_(2) + (4)/(3) v`
