An object with total mass mtotal = 16.1 kg is sitting at rest when it explodes into three pieces. One piece with mass m1 = 4.6 kg moves up and to the left at an angle of θ1 = 22° above the –x axis with a speed of v1 = 25 m/s. A second piece with mass m2 = 5.1 kg moves down and to the right an angle of θ2 = 27° to the right of the -y axis at a speed of v2 = 23.2 m/s.
1) What is the x-component of the velocity of the third piece?

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...
10.9 A radioactive nucleus (mass = 1.70*10-26 kg) is at rest. It suddenly decays (explodes) into three pieces. One piece has mass mi = 5.00*10-27 kg and is found to be moving along the +y axis with a speed of 6.00* 10 m/s. A second piece with mass m2 = 8.40*10-27 kg moves along the +x axis with a speed of 4.00* 10° m/s. Assuming the mass is held constant, find the velocity of the third and final piece that...
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 unstable nucleus of mass 1.7 ✕ 10−26 kg, initially at rest at the origin of a coordinate system, disintegrates into three particles. One particle, having a mass of m1 = 1.0 ✕ 10−27 kg, moves in the positive y-direction with speed v1 = 5.0 ✕ 106 m/s. Another particle, of mass m2 = 8.0 ✕ 10−27 kg, moves in the positive x-direction with speed v2 = 3.8 ✕ 106 m/s. Find the magnitude and direction of the velocity of...
Problem 1 An object of mass m1 travels through empty space at a constant speed until it strikes and sticks to a second object. As observed from the frame where the second object is motionless, the first object was traveling at a speed of vi. In that same frame, both objects travel at a speed of v after the collision. a. What is the general expression for the mass of the second object in terms of mi, vi, and v?...
A satellite of mass m= 100kg is orbiting the Earth in a Low Earth Orbit at a velocity of v= 12,000m/s. It is simultaneously hit by two oncoming meteors. The first meteor of mass m1 = 10kg impacts at an angle of θ1 = 30° at a speed of v1 = 1000m/s. The second meteor of mass m2 = 8kg impacts at an angle of θ2 = 10° at a speed of v2 = 1500m/s. If both meteors become embedded...
A vessel at rest at the origin of an xy coordinate system explodes into three pieces. Just after the explosion, one piece, of mass m, moves with velocity (-32 m/s) i Overscript ̂ EndScripts and a second piece, also of mass m, moves with velocity (-32 m/s) j Overscript ̂ EndScripts. The third piece has mass 3m. Just after the explosion, what are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction (as an angle relative to the +x axis) of the velocity...
A bomb at rest at the origin of an xy-coordinate system explodes into three pieces. Just after the explosion, one piece, of mass 2 kg, moves with a velocity of 43 m/s in the negative x-direction, and a second piece, also of mass 2 kg, moves with a velocity of 30 m/s in the negative y-direction. The third piece has a mass of 7 kg. What is the initial momentum of the bomb before the explosion? What is the x-component...
A billiard ball of mass m = 0.25 kg strikes the cushion of a billiard table at θ1 = 62° and a speed v1 = 28 m/s. It bounces off at an angle of θ2 = 430 and a velocity of v2 = 11 m/s. What is the magnitude of its change in momentum (in kg·m/s)?
A 10kg mass initially at rest explodes into three pieces. A 4.5kg piece goes north at 20 m/s and a 2.0kg piece moves eastward at 60 m.s. what is the speed of the third piece? a. 80.0 m/s b. 25.7 m/s c. 42.9 m/s d. 60.0 m/s e. 34.3 m/s
