Answer:

20 m/s

Explanation:

If the mass of fragment A is m, then the mass of fragment B is 2m, and the mass of fragment C is 3m.

The velocity of A is 60 m/s at angle 0°.

The velocity of B is 30 m/s at angle 120°.

The velocity of C is v at angle θ.

In the x direction:

Momentum before = momentum after

(m + 2m + 3m) (0) = m (60 cos 0°) + 2m (30 cos 120°) + 3m (v cos θ)

0 = 60m − 30m + 3m v cos θ

0 = 30m + 3m v cos θ

-30m = 3m v cos θ

-10 = v cos θ

In the y direction:

Momentum before = momentum after

(m + 2m + 3m) (0) = m (60 sin 0°) + 2m (30 sin 120°) + 3m (v sin θ)

0 = 0 + 30√3 m + 3m v sin θ

-30√3m = 3m v sin θ

-10√3 = v sin θ

Square the two equations and add together:

(-10)² + (-10√3)² = (v cos θ)² + (v sin θ)²

100 + 300 = v² cos² θ + v² sin² θ

400 = v² (cos² θ + sin² θ)

400 = v²

v = 20

The speed of fragment C is 20 m/s.
