A system of two blocks A and B are connected by an inextensible massless strings as shown. The pulley is massless and frictionless. Initially the system is at rest when, a bullet of mass 'm' moving with a velocity 'u' as shown hits the block 'B' and gets embedded into it. The impulse imparted by tension force to the block of mass 3m is :

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
use momentum conservation equation
m.u. = 5mv

V = 
Impulse imparted by tension force to block of mass 3m.
= 3mV =
