The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will use the principles of kinematics and conservation of momentum. ### Step 1: Determine the velocity of the mass just before the explosion The mass is thrown upwards with an initial velocity (u) of 100 m/s. After 5 seconds, we need to find the velocity (v) just before the explosion. We can use the equation of motion: \[ v = u + at \] where: - \( u = 100 \, \text{m/s} \) (initial velocity) - \( a = -g = -10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) (acceleration due to gravity, negative because it acts downwards) - \( t = 5 \, \text{s} \) Substituting the values: \[ v = 100 - 10 \times 5 \] \[ v = 100 - 50 \] \[ v = 50 \, \text{m/s} \] ### Step 2: Set up the conservation of momentum equation Before the explosion, the total momentum (P_initial) of the system is given by: \[ P_{\text{initial}} = m \cdot v \] where: - \( m = 1 \, \text{kg} \) - \( v = 50 \, \text{m/s} \) Calculating the initial momentum: \[ P_{\text{initial}} = 1 \times 50 = 50 \, \text{kg m/s} \] After the explosion, the mass splits into two parts: - Part 1: mass \( m_1 = 400 \, \text{g} = 0.4 \, \text{kg} \) moving down with velocity \( v_1 = -25 \, \text{m/s} \) (downward direction is negative) - Part 2: mass \( m_2 = 600 \, \text{g} = 0.6 \, \text{kg} \) with an unknown velocity \( v_2 \) The conservation of momentum states: \[ P_{\text{initial}} = P_{\text{final}} \] \[ 50 = (0.4 \times -25) + (0.6 \times v_2) \] ### Step 3: Solve for the unknown velocity \( v_2 \) Substituting the values into the equation: \[ 50 = -10 + 0.6 v_2 \] Rearranging the equation to solve for \( v_2 \): \[ 50 + 10 = 0.6 v_2 \] \[ 60 = 0.6 v_2 \] \[ v_2 = \frac{60}{0.6} \] \[ v_2 = 100 \, \text{m/s} \] ### Conclusion The velocity of the other part after the explosion is \( 100 \, \text{m/s} \) in the upward direction. ---
