A man of mass m moves with a constant speed on a plank of mass M and length I kept initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface from one end to the  other in time t. The speed of the plank relative to ground while man is moving, is

a
ltMm
b
ltmm + M
c
ltMM +m
d
None of these

detailed solution

Correct option is B

We know that, vr=ltNow, m(vr - v)=Mv                             (v=speed of plank)∴               v=mvrM+m=ltmM+m
