An object explodes into two fragments such that the larger fragment has twice the mass as the smaller fragment. If 15,000 J is given to the fragments in the explosion, what is the kinetic energy of the larger mass?

A 7.50kg shell at rest explodes into two fragments, one with a mass of 1.00kg and the other with a mass of 6.50kg . If the heavier fragment gains 120J of kinetic energy from the explosion, how much kinetic energy does the lighter one gain? K=?J
An object with total mass mtotal = 6.4 kg is sitting at rest when it explodes into two pieces. The two pieces, after the explosion, have masses of m and 3m. During the explosion, the pieces are given a total energy of E = 45 J. What is the speed of the smaller piece after the collision? What is the speed of the larger piece after the collision? If the explosion lasted for a time t = 0.029 s, what...
a bomb explodes in two fragments which move horizontally. One fragment woth a mass of 3 kg travels at the speed of 50 m/s. Find the apeed of the other fragment which has a mass of 5kg.

object initially at rest explodes into three picces. Piece A has a mass of 5 kg, B has a mass of 3.0 kg, and C has a mass of 2.5 kg. After the explosion, A's velocity is (3.0 m/s)i + (2.0 m/s) j and B's velocity is (2.0 m/s)i - (3.0 m/s) j y at rest explodes into three pieces. Piece A has a mass of 5.0 a. What is C's velocity after the explosion? b. Calculate the change...
An object at rest on a flat, horizontal surface explodes into two fragments, one seven times as massive as the other. The heavier fragment slides 5.40 m before stopping. How far does the lighter fragment slide? Part A: Assume that both fragments have the same coefficient of kinetic friction.
An object at rest explodes into three fragments. The figure shows
the momentum vectors of two of the fragments.
What is p_x of the third fragment?
What is p_y of the third fragment?
answer in "kg m/s" please!
"HINT" the answer IS NOT p3_x=0 & p3_y=-2
A 1500 kg weather rocket accelerates upward at 10m/s2. It explodes 2.0 s after liftoff and breaks into two fragments, one twice as massive as the other. Photos reveal that the lighter fragment traveled straight up and reached a maximum height of 530 m. What was the speed of the heavier fragment just after the explosion?
Challenge Problem: Momentum and Kinetic Energy An explosion causes an object, initially at rest, to break into two pieces. One of these pieces has twice as much kinetic energy as the other. What is the ratio of their masses? Which one has the larger mass? Is it the one with the larger kinetic energy, or the one with the smaller kinetic energy?
x Incorrect. An object, with mass m and speed vi relative to an observer, explodes into two pieces, one 3 times as massive as the other; the explosion takes place in deep space. The less massive piece stops relative to the observer. How much kinetic energy is added to the system during the explosion, as measured in the observer's reference frame? State your answer in terms of the given variables. Click here to enter or edit your answer 4(K. E)-6...
An object, with mass 93 kg and speed 23 m/s relative to an observer, explodes into two pieces, one 3 times as massive as the other; the explosion takes place in deep space. The less massive piece stops relative to the observer. How much kinetic energy is added to the system during the explosion, as measured in the observer's reference frame
