A rocket moves with a speed of 45 m / s. The rocket suddenly breaks into two parts of equal mass that fly at speeds v1 and v2. Obtain the magnitude of the velocity of each part in which the rocket broke.

Solutions

Expert Solution

The angle of velocity with respect to initial direction is necessary to find the magnitude of velocity. Suppose, if it has broken into two parts with angles 30o and 60o with respect to initial direction, then we can find the final velocities as follows:
