  1. 1 Laws of Motion Medium
    A shell of mass $m$ is at rest initially. It explodes into three fragments having mass in the ratio $2:2:1$. If the fragments having equal mass fly off along mutually perpendicular directions with speed $v$, the speed of the third (lighter) fragment is:

  1. 2 Laws of Motion Medium
    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 8 $ms^{-1}$ speed. If the third part flies off with 4 $ms^{-1}$ speed, then its mass is:
