उत्तर
(i) Mass is the measure of inertia.
Let 'm' be the mass of the two bodies.
Inertia of body A:Inertia of body B :: m:m
Or, Inertia of body A:Inertia of body B :: 1:1
(ii) Momentum of body A = m (v)
Momentum of body B = m (2v) = 2mv
Momentum of body A:Momentum of body B :: mv:2mv
Or, Momentum of body A:Momentum of body B :: 1:2.

A spy jumps from an airplane with his parachute. The spy accelerates downward for some time when the parachute opens. The acceleration is suddenly checked and the spy slowly falls to the ground. Explain the action of the parachute in checking the acceleration.
A free 238U nucleus kept in a train emits an alpha particle. When the train is stationary, a nucleus decays and a passenger measures that the separation between the alpha particle and the recoiling nucleus becomes x at time t after the decay. If the decay takes place while the train is moving at a uniform velocity v, the distance between the alpha particle and the recoiling nucleus at a time t after the decay, as measured by the passenger, is
