A ball of mass 10kg, moving with a velocity 10√3 m/s along, the x-axis, hits another ball of mass 20kg which is at rest. After the collision, first ball comes to rest while second ball disintegrates into two equal pieces. One piece starts moving along y-axis with a speed of 10 m/s. The second piece starts moving at an angle of 30° with respect to the x-axis. The velocity of the ball moving at 30° with x-axis is x m/s. The configuration of pieces after collision is shown in the figure below. The value of x to the nearest integer is---------

Apply conservation of momentum along y-axis, we can write
10v? - 10v? sin 30° = 0
⇒ v? = 20m/s
