A space vehicle is traveling at 2530 km/h relative to Earth when the exhausted rocket motor is disengaged and sent backward. The relative speed between the motor and the command module is then 88 km/h. The mass of the motor is four times the mass of the module. What is the speed of the command module relative to Earth just after the separation? Number i Units
