A shell of mass m and speed v explodes into two identical fragments. If the shell was moving horizontally (the positive x direct

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of original shell , m .

Velocity of shell , + v .

Now , the particle explodes into two half parts , i.e $\dfrac{m}{2}$ .
