2 two asteroids collide in space and one of them breaks into two equal pieces. if the initial velocity of the second asteroid was v and those of its components

2 Two asteroids collide in space and one of them breaks into two equal pieces. If the initial velocity of the second asteroid was v and those of its components are also v each, then the velocity of the first asteroid after the impact can be deduced as (A) same as initial velocity (B) 0 (C) twice the initial velocity (D) any arbitrary value

    As momentum of first partical remains unchanged, hence momentum of second partical will also remain same. hence velocity won't change.
