Problem 9 – 39P*: A vessel at rest explodes, breaking into three pieces. Two pieces, having equal mass, fly off perpendicular to one another with the same speed of 30 m/s. The third piece has three times the mass of each other piece. What are the magnitude and direction of its velocity immediately after the explosion?

Problem 9 – 40P: An 8.0 kg body is traveling at 2.0 m/s with no external force acting on it. At a certain instant an internal explosion occurs, splitting the body into two chunks of 4.0 kg mass each.
