Three particles of equal masses are placed at the corners of an equilateral triangle as shown in the figure. Now particle A starts with a velocity v1 towards line A B, particle B starts with a velocity v2 towards line B C and particle C starts with velocity v3 towards line C A.The displacement of CM of three particle A, B and C after time t will be (given if v1=v2=v3

Three point like equal masses m1, m2 and m3 are connected to the cnds of a massless rod of length  L which lies at rest on a smooth horizontal plane (see figure). At t=0, an explosion occurs between m2 and m3, and as a result, mass m3 is detached from the rod, and moves with a known velocity y at an angle of 30° with the y -axis. Assume that the masses m2 and m3 are unchanged during the explosion. What is the velocity of the centre of mass of the system consisting of three masses, after the explosion?

A vessel at rest explodes breaking it into three pieces. Two pieces having equal mass fly off perpendicular to one another with the same speed of 30 m/s. The third piece has three times the mass of each of the other two pieces. What is the direction (w.r.t. the pieces having equal masses) and magnitude of its velocity immediately after the explosion?
