His power output was 3 Watt (360 Joule/120 seconds). The power output can be calculated by dividing the quantity of work by the amount of second needed for the activity and also by multiplying the force amount with the velocity of the activity. The power output usually used for measuring the ability of machine for doing its job.

Answer:

$v_2=-133.17m/s$ , the minus meaning west.

Explanation:

We know that linear momentum must be conserved, so it will be the same before ( $p_i$ ) and after ( $p_f$ ) the explosion. We will take the east direction as positive.

Before the explosion we have $p_i=m_iv_i=Mv_i$ .

After the explosion we have pieces 1 and 2, so $p_f=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$ .

These equations must be vectorial but since we look at the instants before and after the explosions and the bomb fragments in only 2 pieces the problem can be simplified in one dimension with direction east-west.

Since we know momentum must be conserved we have:

$Mv_i=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

Which means (since we want $v_2$ and $M=m_1+m_2$ ):

$v_2=\frac{Mv_i-m_1v_1}{m_2}=\frac{Mv_i-m_1v_1}{M-m_1}$

So for our values we have:

$v_2=\frac{(145kg)(24m/s)-(115kg)(65m/s)}{(145kg-115kg)}=-133.17m/s$
