A body A of mass M while falling vertically downwards under gravity brakes into two parts, a body B of mass `(1)/(3)` M and a body C of mass `(2)/(3)` M. The center of mass of bodies B and C taken together shifts compared to that of body A towards

body C

body B

depends on height of breaking

does not shift.
