Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Average speed along the \(\mathrm{x}\)-axis
\(\left(\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{x}}\right)=\frac{\int\left|\overrightarrow{\mathrm{V}}_{\mathrm{x}}\right| \mathrm{dt}}{\int \mathrm{dt}}=\frac{\mathrm{d}_1+\mathrm{d}_2}{\mathrm{t}_1+\mathrm{t}_2} \rightarrow(1)\)
We also have,
\(\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{r}_1=\frac{\mathrm{mv}}{\mathrm{qB}_1}, \mathrm{r}_2=\frac{\mathrm{mv}}{\mathrm{qB} \mathrm{B}_2} \\
&\text { since } \mathrm{B}_1=\frac{\mathrm{B}_2}{4}
\end{aligned}\)
\(\therefore \mathrm{r}_1=4 \mathrm{r}_2 \rightarrow(2)\)
Time in \(B_1 \Rightarrow \frac{\pi B}{q B_1}=t_1\)
Time in \(\mathrm{B}_2 \Rightarrow \frac{\pi \mathrm{B}}{\mathrm{qB}_2}=\mathrm{t}_2\)
Total distance along \(\mathrm{x}\)-axis \(\mathrm{d}_1+\mathrm{d}_2=2 \mathrm{r}_1+2 \mathrm{r}_2=2\left(\mathrm{r}_1+\mathrm{r}_2\right)=2\left(5 \mathrm{r}_2\right)\)
Total time \(\mathrm{T}=\mathrm{t}_1+\mathrm{t}_2=5 \mathrm{t}_2\)
\(\therefore \text { Average speed }=\frac{10 \mathrm{r}_2}{5 \mathrm{t}_2}=2 \frac{\mathrm{mv}}{\mathrm{qB}_2} \times \frac{\mathrm{qB}_2}{\pi \mathrm{m}}=2\)
\(\left(\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{x}}\right)=\frac{\int\left|\overrightarrow{\mathrm{V}}_{\mathrm{x}}\right| \mathrm{dt}}{\int \mathrm{dt}}=\frac{\mathrm{d}_1+\mathrm{d}_2}{\mathrm{t}_1+\mathrm{t}_2} \rightarrow(1)\)
We also have,
\(\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{r}_1=\frac{\mathrm{mv}}{\mathrm{qB}_1}, \mathrm{r}_2=\frac{\mathrm{mv}}{\mathrm{qB} \mathrm{B}_2} \\
&\text { since } \mathrm{B}_1=\frac{\mathrm{B}_2}{4}
\end{aligned}\)
\(\therefore \mathrm{r}_1=4 \mathrm{r}_2 \rightarrow(2)\)
Time in \(B_1 \Rightarrow \frac{\pi B}{q B_1}=t_1\)
Time in \(\mathrm{B}_2 \Rightarrow \frac{\pi \mathrm{B}}{\mathrm{qB}_2}=\mathrm{t}_2\)
Total distance along \(\mathrm{x}\)-axis \(\mathrm{d}_1+\mathrm{d}_2=2 \mathrm{r}_1+2 \mathrm{r}_2=2\left(\mathrm{r}_1+\mathrm{r}_2\right)=2\left(5 \mathrm{r}_2\right)\)

\(\therefore \text { Average speed }=\frac{10 \mathrm{r}_2}{5 \mathrm{t}_2}=2 \frac{\mathrm{mv}}{\mathrm{qB}_2} \times \frac{\mathrm{qB}_2}{\pi \mathrm{m}}=2\)

- Two particles, 1 and 2 , each of mass \(m\), are connected by a massless spring, and are on a horizontal frictionless plane, as shown in the figure. Initially, the two particles, with their center of mass at \(x_0\), are oscillating with amplitude \(a\) and angular frequency \(\omega\). Thus, their positions at time \(t\) are given by \(x_1(t)=\left(x_0+d\right)+a \sin \omega t\) and \(x_2(t)=\left(x_0-d\right)-a \sin \omega t\), respectively, where \(d>2 a\). Particle 3 of mass \(m\) moves towards this system with speed \(u_0=a \omega / 2\), and undergoes instantaneous elastic collision with particle 2 , at time \(t_0\). Finally, particles 1 and 2 acquire a center of mass speed \(v_{\mathrm{cm}}\) and oscillate with amplitude \(b\) and the same angular frequency \(\omega\).
