A stationary 4-kg shell explodes into three pieces. Two of the fragments have a mass of 1 kg each and move along the paths shown with a speed of 10 m/s. The third fragment moves upward as shown.
What is the initial total momentum of the system? kg m/s
What is the final total momentum of the system? kg m/s
What is the speed of the third fragment? m/s
Is kinetic energy conserved?
