An unstable nucleus of mass 17×10⁻²⁷ kg initially at rest disintegrates into three particles. One of the particles, of mass 5.0×10⁻²⁷ kg, moves along the y axis with a speed of 6000 km/s. Another particle of mass 8.4×10⁻²⁷ kg, moves along the x axis with a speed of 4000 km/s. Find (a) the velocity of the third particle and assuming the mass is conserved.
2.8x10⁷ m/s , θ = 260°
5.3x10⁷ m/s , θ = 240°
4.3x10⁷ m/s , θ = 233°
1.3x10⁷ m/s , θ = 222°
6.2x10⁷ m/s , θ = 200°
5.6x10⁷ m/s , θ = 250°
none of the above
