A man and a plank system are moving horizontally on a smooth surface with a velocity of \(10~\text{m/s}.\) With what velocity should the man jump out of the plank so that the plank comes to rest if the mass of the plank is double the mass of the man?
1. \(10~\text{m/s}\)
2. \(20~\text{m/s}\)
3. \(30~\text{m/s}\)
4. not possible

A man standing on a still boat jumps out horizontally with a speed of \(20~\text{m/s}\) with respect to the boat. If the mass of a man is \(70~\text{kg}\) and that of the boat is \(210~\text{kg},\) then the speed of the boat after the man jumps will be:
1. \(20~\text{m/s}\)
2. \(6.67~\text{m/s}\)
3. \(5~\text{m/s}\)
4. \(15~\text{m/s}\)

A shell of mass m is at rest initially. It explodes into three fragments having masses in the ratio \(2:2:1\). If the fragments having equal masses fly off along mutually perpendicular directions with speed \(v,\) the speed of the third (lighter) fragment is:
1.
\(3 \sqrt{2} v\)
2.
\(v\)
3.
\(\sqrt{2} v\)
4.
\(2 \sqrt{2} v\)
