In midair an M = 135 kg bomb explodes into two pieces of m1 = 105 kg and another, respectively. Before the explosion, the bomb was moving at 20.0 m/s to the east. After the explosion, the velocity of the m1 = 105 kg piece is 62.0 m/s to the east. Find the velocity (in m/s) (with a proper sign) of the other piece after the explosion.

-117 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass, M=135 kg

Let m be the mass of another piece

Mass of another piece=135-105=30 kg

V=20 m/s

We have to find the velocity of the other piece.

According to law of conservation of momentum

Substitute the values

Hence, the velocity of other piece after the explosion=-117 m/s

the journeys of marquette, joliet and la salle a) new france expand.

all three of these explorers explored the midwest and the area around the great lakes, which they subsequently claimed for france.

this was a big portion of territory and expanded new france which before then only consisted of quebec province in northeastern canada
