You put an antimatter explosive in a 133 kg space rock, initially moving to the right at 34 m/s. This time, upon detonation, the rock fractures into three pieces. A 16 kg chunk is observed to zip off to the right (the positive direction) at 60 m/s. A 69 kg chunk is observed to zip off to the left at 59 m/s. Calculate the final velocity of the third chunk, in m/s. (Please answer to the fourth decimal place - i.e 14.3225)

A 2,800 kg truck jumps the median and clobbers a 940 kg station wagon in a head-on collision. You are tasked with determining the truck's initial speed for insurance purposes. An observer states that the station wagon was traveling at a speed of 25.1 m/s and that after the collision, the two vehicles stuck together and were moving at a speed of 24.4 m/s in the direction the truck was originally moving. What was the truck's original speed?
Vlad is fishing in his kayak with his gun. He loses his paddles, but is loaded up with plenty of ammo. If Vlad (60 kg) and the kayak 18 kg are at rest, how many bullets (7.97 grams each) must Vlad fire (at a muzzle velocity of 716.3 m/s) to propel his kayak to a velocity of 4 m/s? (Solve for the total mass of bullets first and then determine the amount.)
Two masses undergo a collision and they stick together. M1 has a mass of 550g and was traveling at an unknown velocity toward the second mass, M2=400g, which was traveling in the same direction at 4.5m/s. After the collision, they have a velocity of 5.1 m/s. Determine the velocity of the first mass before the collision.
