e = | v1 - v2 | / | u1 - u2 | which is 1 for a perfectly elastic collision.
Correct Option: A
e = | v1 - v2 | / | u1 - u2 | which is 1 for a perfectly elastic collision.
- An explosion breaks a rock into three parts in a horizontal plane. Two of them go off at right angles to each other. The first part of mass 1 kg moves with a speed of 12 ms–1 and the second part of mass 2 kg moves with speed 8 ms–1. If the third part flies off with speed 4 ms–1 then its mass is

Presultant = √12² + 16²
= √144 + 256 = 20
m3v3 = 20 (momentum of third part)m3 = 20 = 5 kg 4
Correct Option: A
Presultant = √12² + 16²
= √144 + 256 = 20
m3v3 = 20 (momentum of third part)m3 = 20 = 5 kg 4
- A body of mass (4m) is lying in x-y plane at rest. It suddenly explodes into three pieces. Two pieces, each of mass (m) move perpendicular to each other with equal speeds (v). The total kinetic energy generated due to explosion is :

By conservation of linear momentum
2mv1 = √2 mv ⇒ v1 = v √2
As two masses of each of mass m move perpendicular to each other. Total KE generated = 1 mv2 + 1 mv2 + 1 (2m)v12 2 2 2 = mv2 + mv2 = 3 mv2 2 2 Correct Option: B

When ball collides with the ground it loses its 50% of energy
∴ K.Ef = 1 ⇒ 1 m1Vf2 = 1 2 K.Ei 2 1 m2Vi2 2 2 or Vf = 1 Vi √2
or √2gh = 1 √V0² + 2gh √2
or, 4gh = V02 + 2gh
∴ V0 = 20 ms–1
