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 (-36 m/s) î and a second piece, also of mass m, moves with velocity (-36 m/s) ĵ. 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 of the third piece?

You release a 3-kg firecracker from rest. At t = 0.4 s, the firecracker is moving downward with speed 4 m/s. At this same instant, the firecracker begins to explode into two pieces with masses mtop = 1 kg and mbottom = 2 kg. At the end of the explosion (t = 0.8 s), the top piece is moving upward with speed 4 m/s.Determine the velocity of the bottom piece at t = 0.8 s.(Hints: Make a momentum vector diagram. Don’t forget to include impulse in your diagram!)

A large block of mass 3.80 kg slides on a frictionless table and collides head-on with a small block of mass 2.50 kg. After the collision both blocks move in the same direction as the original motion of the large block, and fall off the edge of the table. The small block hits the floor at a point 2.18 meters horizontally from the edge of the table, while the large block hits the floor at a point 1.38 meters horizontally from the edge of the table. The top of the table is 1.10 m above the floor. Find the speed, in m/s, of the large block before the collision.
