Q.
A mass of 1kg is thrown up with a velocity of 100m/s. After 5 seconds, it explodes into two parts. One part of mass 400g comes down with a velocity 25m/s. The velocity of other part is (Take g=10ms−2 )

Solution:
Velocity after 5sec,v=u−gt =100−10×5=50m/s
By conservation of momentum 1×50=0.4×(−25)+0.6×v′60=0.6×v′ ⇒v′=100m/s upwards
