3.0 cm
2.0 cm
1.5 cm
1.5 cm
D.
1.5 cm
A body A of mass M while falling vertically downwards under gravity breaks into two parts; a body B of mass 1/3 M and a body C of mass 2/3 M. The centre of mass of bodies B and C taken together shifts compared to that of body A towards
depends on height of breaking

No horizontal external force is acting
∴ = acm =0
since vcm= 0
∴∆xcm = 0
A particle of mass 0.3 kg is subjected to a force F=−kx with k=15 N/m. What will be its initial acceleration if it is released from a point 20 cm away from the origin?
3 m/s2

5 m/s2
5 m/s2
D.
5 m/s2
a = kx/m =10m /s2
