A projectile of mass M explodes at the top of its trajectory (Xm, hm). Right after the explosion, the smallest piece of mass m1 = M/3 is momentarily at rest. Where does the other piece of mass M2 land? Hint: Use center of mass

A model rocket is shot straight up and explodes at the top of
its trajectory into three pieces as viewed from above and shown in
the figure below. The masses of the three pieces are
mA = 110.0 g,
mB = 20.0 g,
and
mC = 30.0 g.
Immediately after the explosion, piece A is traveling at 1.40
m/s, and piece B is traveling at 6.90 m/s in a direction 30° below
the negative x axis as shown. What is...
A projectile of mass M #13.4 kg is launched over level ground at a speed 28.6 and at an angle of 46.5 degrees above the horizontal. At the instant that the projectile is at what would be its highest point it explodes into two pieces; after the explosion there is a piece of mass ml = 5.2kg which has a vertical component of velocity of 9.7 , and a second piece of mass m2 which moves downwards. The explosion does...
A mortar fires a shell of mass m at speed v0. The shell explodes at the top of its trajectory (shown by a star in the figure) as designed. However, rather than creating a shower of colored flares, it breaks into just two pieces, a smaller piece of mass 15m and a larger piece of mass 45m. Both pieces land at exactly the same time. The smaller piece lands perilously close to the mortar (at a distance of zero from...
A model rocket is shot straight up and explodes at the top of its trajectory into three pieces as viewed from above and shown in the figure below. The masses of the three pieces are mA-107.5 g, ms- 20.0 g, and mc 30.0 g. Immediately after the explosion, piece A is traveling at 1.30 m/s, and piece B is traveling at 6.50 m/s in a direction 30° below the negative x axis as shown. What is the velocity of piece...
A cannonball of mass 27.6 kg is shot into the air at an angle of 45 degrees with respect to horizontal. At the top of its ballistic trajectory, the cannonball suddenly explodes into two separate pieces, a smaller piece this is 1/3 the original mass, and a larger piece that is 2/3 the original mass. The smaller piece ends up landing right back at the spot where the cannonball was originally launched, 14.7 seconds after it was launched. How far...
QUESTION 10 1. An object of mass m, initially at rest at the origin, explodes into two pieces. The first piece, 87.5 percent of the mass, moves along the negative x-axis at 1.32 m/s. Find the speed, in m/s, of the other piece right after the explosion. NOTE: You do not need to know mass m!
Dr. C. #1: Exploding Projectile: A projectile of mass 9.6 kg is shot from the ground with an initial velocity of 12.4 m/s at an angle of 54° above the horizontal. A. Assuming the ground underneath the projectile's path is flat, what is the maximum height h the projectile reaches, its horizontal range R, and the time it spends in the air? Suppose that, at the peak of the projectile's motion, an explosion splits the projectile in half and one...

A projectile of mass m launched vertically upward from the origin (0,0) with an initial velocity of vo explodes into three pieces when it reaches its maximum height of 490.0 m. Immediately after the explosion, one piece with mass m/4 is observed to have velocity v 3vot vo/2 y, and a second piece also of mass m/4 is observed to have velocity v Vox (a) What is the velocity v of the third piece immediately after the...
An object of mass m, initially moving at 6.44 along the x-axis, explodes into two pieces. The first piece, 83.6 percent of the mass, moves along the negative x-axis at 7.63 m/s. Find the speed, in m/s, of the other piece right after the explosion.
An object with total mass mtotal = 6.4 kg is sitting at rest when it explodes into two pieces. The two pieces, after the explosion, have masses of m and 3m. During the explosion, the pieces are given a total energy of E = 45 J. What is the speed of the smaller piece after the collision? What is the speed of the larger piece after the collision? If the explosion lasted for a time t = 0.029 s, what...
