A 340-kg space vehicle traveling with a velocity v0 = ( 370 m/s)i passes through the origin O at t = 0. Explosive charges then
separate the vehicle into three parts, A, B, and C, with mass, respectively, 170 kg, 100 kg, and 70 kg. Knowing that at t = 4 s,
the positions of parts A and B are observed to be A (1170 m, -290 m, -585 m) and B ( 1975 m, 365 m, 800 m), determine the
corresponding position of part C. Neglect the effect of gravity.
The position of part C is rC = ( m )i + ( m)j + ( m)k.
