Question

A plate falls vertically to the floor and breaks up into three pieces, which slide along the floor. Immediately after the impact, a 300-g piece moves along the x-axis with a speed of 2 00 m/s and a 330-g piece moves along the y-axis with a speed of 1.50 m/s. The third piece has a mass of 100 g. In what direction does the third piece move? You can neglect any horizontal forces during the crash 175.6degree from the x-axis 263.4degree from the x-axis 87.8degree from the x-axis 219.5degree from the x-axis 131.7degree from the x-axis

Explanation / Answer

180 degree + arctan (3.3*1.5/6) = 219.5 degrees
