Q.

Two collars, A of mass 2m and B of mass 3m are connected by a massless rod with pinjoints so that they are constrained to move along the fixed perpendicular rods on horizontal plane, as shown in the accompanying figure. Another collar C of mass m hits A with speed 'v'  and sticks to it. There is no friction between collars and rods.

Detailed Solution

Let the impulse due to the rod be T.  
mvTcosα=3mv1  where,  v1  is the speed of  (A+C)  just after the collision.
Tsinα=3mV2  where V2  is the speed of B from the inextensibility of rod AB
 V1cosα=V2sinα

Thus,  V1=vsin2α3&V2=vsin2α6
