 Three particles each of mass m are connected with each other by a  massless rod of length  2a to form an equilateral triangle.The system is placed on a smooth horizontal surface.A particle of mass m moving with speed V along the line BC
collides with particle B and comes to rest..Find tension in rod after collision..

i'm not sure
i'll try

now consider the whole triangle as one system
conservation of momentum

mv + 3m(0) = 3m(v') + m (0)
v' = v/3
s= 2a
v^2 +u^2 = 2As
u =0
s = 2a
Accelration A = (v/3)^2 / 2 (2a) = v^2 / 36a
now
T + T cos60 = ma
T ( 3/2) = mv^2/36a
T = mv^2 /54a

conserving momentum along the line of action of force ..

mv = m(0) + 3m(v2)

v2 = v / 3

tensionn in which rod is required dude

we can use the concept that change in momentum which is

mv / 3 is equal to the NET force

@ tarun:
how is it possible for change in momentum be equal to force????
thts wrong from the roots of units n dimensions itself
