An object of mass5 kgand speed10 m s-1explodes into two pieces of equal mass. One-piece comes to rest. The kinetic energy added to the system during the explosion is

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

According to conservation of momentummu=m2×0+m2v

⇒v=2u

⇒v= 2×10=20 m s-1

⇒KEi=12mu2

⇒KEi=12×5×102

⇒KEi=250 J

NowKEg=12×m2v2

⇒KEg=12×52×202

⇒KEg=500 J

Additional energy is given

ΔKE=KEg-KEl

⇒∆KE=500-250

⇒∆KE=250 J
