an object initially at rest explodes in two pieces
the first piece has a mass 8 times greater than the mass of the second piece.
If this heavier one slides nine meters before coming to a halt, what is the distance by which the other piece slides?

(Same kinetic coefficients for each piece)

In the figure here, a stationary block explodes into two pieces L and R that slide across a frictionless floor and then into regions with friction, where they stop. Piece L, with a mass of 3.8 kg, encounters a coefficient of kinetic friction μL = 0.56 and slides to a stop in distance dL = 0.48 m. Piece R encounters a coefficient of kinetic friction μR = 0.56 and slides to a stop in distance dR = 0.31 m. What...
