Problem 2: A 600 Kg rocket is initially at rest. It suddenly explodes and breaks into 3 equally massed pieces travelling in the directions shown below. V=0 Before ABM=600kg A After a) Determine the magnitude of the total momentum of the spacecraft before the explosion. b) What is the magnitude of the total momentum after the explosion. c) Calculate momentum vector of section A. d) Calculate momentum vector of section B. e) Calculate momentum vector of section C. f) Calculate the magnitude of the center of mass velocity. VB = 100m/s
