      A space m u d space b a l l space a t space r e s t space e x p l o d e s space i n t o space t h r e e space f r a g e m e n t s space o f space m a s s e s space i n space t h e space r a t i o space l colon 2 colon 1. space
T h e space t w o space e q u a l space m a s s e s space m o v e space w i t h space v e l o c i t i e s space 2 space i with hat on top plus 5 space j with hat on top minus 6 space k with hat on top space a n d space space i with hat on top plus 3 space j with hat on top plus 2 space k with hat on top.
F i n d space t h e space v e l o c i t y space o f space t h e space t h i r d space m a s s.

      1. stack 2 i with hat on top minus 3 j with hat on top plus 2 k with hat on top
      2. i with hat on top plus 4 j with hat on top plus 2 k with hat on top

      3. i with hat on top minus 4 j with hat on top plus 2 k with hat on top
      4. i with hat on top minus 4 j with hat on top minus 2 k with hat on top

      The correct answer is: i with hat on top minus 4 j with hat on top plus 2 k with hat on top


        text  Apply conservation of momentum:  end text
rightwards double arrow    m subscript 1 v with rightwards arrow on top subscript 1 plus m subscript 2 v with rightwards arrow on top subscript 2 plus m subscript 3 v with rightwards arrow on top subscript 3 equals 0
m left parenthesis 2 i with hat on top plus 5 j with hat on top minus 6 k with hat on top right parenthesis plus 2 m v with rightwards arrow on top subscript 2 plus m left parenthesis negative 4 i with hat on top plus 3 j with hat on top plus 2 k with hat on top right parenthesis equals 0
v with rightwards arrow on top subscript 2 equals i with hat on top minus 4 j with hat on top plus 2 k with hat on top
