Two particle A and B start moving due to their mutual interaction only. If at any time `t`, `vec(a)_(A)` and `vec(a)_(B)` are their respective accelerations, `vec(v)_(A)` and `vec(v)_(B)` are their respective velocities, and upto that time `W_(A)` and `W_(B)` are the work done on A and B respectively by the mutual force, `m_(A)` and `m_(B)` are their masses respectively, then which of the following is always correct.

A

`vecv_A + vecv_B = 0`

B

` m_Avecv_A + m_Bvecv_B = 0`

C

`W_A + W_B = 0`

D

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the situation of two particles A and B interacting with each other. We will derive the correct relationship based on the principles of physics, particularly focusing on the conservation of momentum. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the System**: - We have two particles A and B that are interacting with each other. The only forces acting on them are mutual forces (action-reaction pairs). - Since there are no external forces acting on the system, we can consider it as an isolated system. 2. **Initial Conditions**: - At time `t = 0`, both particles start from rest. Therefore, their initial velocities are: \[ \vec{v}_A(0) = 0 \quad \text{and} \quad \vec{v}_B(0) = 0 \] 3. **Applying the Law of Conservation of Momentum**: - According to the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum of an isolated system remains constant if no external forces are acting on it. - The momentum of particle A at time `t` is given by: \[ \vec{P}_A = m_A \vec{v}_A \] - The momentum of particle B at time `t` is given by: \[ \vec{P}_B = m_B \vec{v}_B \] 4. **Total Momentum at Time t**: - The total momentum of the system at time `t` is: \[ \vec{P}_{\text{total}} = \vec{P}_A + \vec{P}_B = m_A \vec{v}_A + m_B \vec{v}_B \] 5. **Setting the Initial Momentum**: - Since both particles started from rest, the initial momentum of the system is: \[ \vec{P}_{\text{initial}} = 0 \] 6. **Equating Initial and Final Momentum**: - By the conservation of momentum, we have: \[ \vec{P}_{\text{total}} = \vec{P}_{\text{initial}} \implies m_A \vec{v}_A + m_B \vec{v}_B = 0 \] 7. **Conclusion**: - Rearranging the equation gives us: \[ m_A \vec{v}_A + m_B \vec{v}_B = 0 \] - This indicates that the momentum of particle A is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the momentum of particle B, which is consistent with the conservation of momentum. ### Final Answer: The correct relationship that is always true is: \[ m_A \vec{v}_A + m_B \vec{v}_B = 0 \]
