A body of mass 50 kg explodes and splits into three pieces. The first piece has a mass of 10 kg and a velocity of [-3,2] m/s, the second piece has a mass of 18 kg and a velocity of [5,-4]m/s. What is the velocity of the third piece?​

Respuesta :

Step-by-step explanation:

From the conversation of angular momentum

Initial momentum=final momentum

Here,

Since body is initially resting, it's momentum must be zero.

Let v be velocity of third piece. Then

0= 10(-3i+2j) + 18(5i-4j) + 22v

Solving this we get,

v= 4/22(15i+13j).

The velocity of third piece is 2/11(13 j - 15i)

What is velocity?

Velocity defines the direction of the movement of the body or the object.

Given:

As the body is at rest so the initial momentum is zero.

Let v be velocity of third piece.

so,

0= 10(-3i+2j) + 18(5i-4j) + 22v

0= -30i + 20j + 90i -72j + 22 v

0= 60i - 52j + 22 v

-60i +52j = 22v

v= 2/11( 13j - 15 i)
