Physics · Center of Mass and Collisions
A particle of mass m is projected with velocity v at an angle θ with the horizontal. At its highest point, it explodes into two pieces of equal mass. If one of the pieces continues to move along the original trajectory, then the velocity of the second piece immediately after the explosion is:
- 1v2 cos(θ)
- 23v cos(θ)
- 3v cos(θ)✓
- 42v cos(θ)
Correct answer
v cos(θ)
