The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will use the principles of kinematics and the conservation of momentum. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the solution: ### Step 1: Calculate the velocity of the particle just before the explosion The particle is thrown upwards with an initial speed \( u = 100 \, \text{m/s} \). After \( t = 5 \, \text{s} \), the velocity \( v \) of the particle can be calculated using the equation of motion: \[ v = u - gt \] where \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) (acceleration due to gravity). Substituting the values: \[ v = 100 \, \text{m/s} - (10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \times 5 \, \text{s}) = 100 \, \text{m/s} - 50 \, \text{m/s} = 50 \, \text{m/s} \] ### Step 2: Determine the masses of the two parts after the explosion The total mass of the particle is \( 1 \, \text{kg} \). One part has a mass of \( 400 \, \text{g} = 0.4 \, \text{kg} \). Therefore, the mass of the second part is: \[ m_2 = 1 \, \text{kg} - 0.4 \, \text{kg} = 0.6 \, \text{kg} \] ### Step 3: Analyze the motion after the explosion After the explosion, one part (mass \( m_1 = 0.4 \, \text{kg} \)) comes back down with a speed of \( v_1 = -25 \, \text{m/s} \) (negative because it is moving downwards). We need to find the speed of the second part (mass \( m_2 = 0.6 \, \text{kg} \)), which we will denote as \( v_2 \). ### Step 4: Apply the conservation of momentum According to the law of conservation of momentum: \[ \text{Initial momentum} = \text{Final momentum} \] The initial momentum before the explosion is: \[ p_{\text{initial}} = (1 \, \text{kg}) \times (50 \, \text{m/s}) = 50 \, \text{kg m/s} \] The final momentum after the explosion is: \[ p_{\text{final}} = m_1 v_1 + m_2 v_2 \] Substituting the known values: \[ 50 = (0.4)(-25) + (0.6)v_2 \] Calculating \( (0.4)(-25) \): \[ 50 = -10 + 0.6 v_2 \] Rearranging the equation to solve for \( v_2 \): \[ 0.6 v_2 = 50 + 10 = 60 \] \[ v_2 = \frac{60}{0.6} = 100 \, \text{m/s} \] ### Step 5: Determine the direction of \( v_2 \) Since the second part is moving upwards, we conclude that: \[ v_2 = 100 \, \text{m/s} \text{ (upward)} \] ### Final Answer The speed of the other part just after the explosion is \( 100 \, \text{m/s} \) upward. ---
