a vessel with mass 10kg intially moving withthe velocicity 12m s along the x axis explodes into three exactly identical pieces Just after the explosion one piece moves with speed 10 m s along the x axis and asecond piece moves with speed 10 m s along the y axis What iis the magnitude of the component of velocity of the third piece along the y axiss

Explanation:

Apply law of conservation of momentum along y-axis.

Initially there was no momentum along y-axis. So there will be nil momentum along y-axis again finally.

Let the mass of each piece after breaking be m .

Momentum of piece moving along positive y-axis

= m x 10 = 10m .

Let the component of velocity of third piece along y-axis be v .

Its momentum along the same direction = m v .

Total momentum along y -axis = 10 m + m v

According to law of conservation of momentum

10 m + mv = 0

v = - 10 m/s .

Component of velocity of the third piece along y-axis will be - 10 m/s .

In other words it will be along negative y-axis with speed of 10 m/s.
