Question

A missile initially at rest, having a mass of 5M, explodes into three pieces. One of the pieces of mass 2M moves with a velocity of 3vî while another of mass M flies off with a velocity of vĵ. Find the velocity of the remaining piece.

Accepted Answer

﻿v3→=−3vi^−12vj^\overrightarrow{$$v_3$$}=-3v\hat{i}-\frac12v\hat{j}v3​​=−3vi^−21​vj^​﻿

Answer

﻿v3→=3vi^−12vj^\overrightarrow{$$v_3$$}=3v\hat{i}-\frac12v\hat{j}v3​​=3vi^−21​vj^​﻿

Answer

﻿v3→=−6vi^−vj^\overrightarrow{$$v_3$$}=-6v\hat{i}-v\hat{j}v3​​=−6vi^−vj^​﻿

Answer

﻿v3→=−3vi^+12vj^\overrightarrow{$$v_3$$}=-3v\hat{i}+\frac12v\hat{j}v3​​=−3vi^+21​vj^​﻿
