Question

A vessel at rest at the origin of an xy coordinate system explodes into three pieces. Just after the explosion, one piece, of mass m, moves with velocity (-25 m/s) î and a second piece, also of mass m, moves with velocity (-25 m/s) ĵ. The third piece has mass 3m. Just after the explosion, what are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction (as an angle relative to the +x axis) of the velocity of the third piece?
