A 480-kg space vehicle traveling with a velocity vo = (405 m/s)i passes through the origin O at t= 0. Explosive charges then
separate the vehicle into three parts, A, B, and C, with mass, respectively, 240 kg, 100 kg, and 140 kg. Knowing that at t = 4 s,
the positions of parts A and B are observed to be A (1170 m, -290 m, -585 m) and B (1975 m, 365 m, 800 m), determine the
corresponding position of part C. Neglect the effect of gravity.
The position of part Cis rc=

m)j +
m)k.
A 900-lb space vehicle traveling with a velocity v0 = (1500 ft/s)k passes through the origin O. Explosive charges then separate the vehicle into three parts A, B, and C , with masses of 150 lb, 300 lb, and 450 lb, respectively. Knowing that shortly thereafter the positions of the three parts are, respectively, A (250, 250, 2250), B (600, 1300, 3200), and C (-475, -950, 1900), where the coordinates are expressed in feet, that the velocity of B is vB = (500 ft/s)i+ (1100 ft/s)j+ (2100 ft/s)k, and that the x component of the velocity of C is -400 ft/s, determine the velocity of part A.
Q2. As shown in the image below, the freight cars A and B are approaching each
other, and they have a mass of mA = 23 Mg and mg = 14 Mg, respectively. The
directions of their initial velocities are shown in the image, and the speeds are VA,1
4.3 m/s and v³,1 = 2.9 m/s. Determine the velocity of A after collision if the cars
collide and rebound, such that B moves to the right with a speed of 1.8 m/s. Right is
considered the positive direction and negative sign must be included if A moves to
the left after the collision. Please pay attention: the numbers may change since they
are randomized. Your answer must include 3 places after the decimal point, and
proper Sl unit.
