I always thought that 'polygamy' refers to the social system in which a man
may have more than one wife, and I thought there's some other word for
where a woman is married to more than one man.
But when I went to look it up just now to answer your question, (which by the
way you could also have done very easily), I found a definition that says it's a
"state of marriage between many spouses". That doesn't specify genders, so
I guess it means any marriage that involves more than two people, no matter
how the genders may be represented or distributed within it.

Answer:
v=12.5 i + 12.5 j m/s
Explanation:
Given that
m₁=m₂ = m
m₃ = 2 m
Given that speed of the two pieces
u₁=- 25 j m/s
u₂ =- 25 i m/s
Lets take the speed of the third mass = v m/s
From linear momentum conservation
Pi= Pf
0 = m₁u₁+m₂u₂ + m₃ v
0 = -25 j m - 25 i m + 2 m v
2 v=25 j + 25 i m/s
v=12.5 i + 12.5 j m/s
Therefore the speed of the third mass will be v=12.5 i + 12.5 j m/s
Answer:
R_cm = 4.66 10⁶ m
Explanation:
The important concept of mass center defined by
R_cm = 1 / M ∑ x_i m_i
where M is the total mass, x_i and m_i are the position and masses of each body
Let's apply this expression to our case.
Let's set a reference frame where the axis points from the center of the Earth to the Moon,
R_cm = 1 / M (m_earth 0 + m_moon d)
the total mass is
M = m_earth + m_moon
the distance from the Earth is zero because all mass can be considered to be at its gravimetric center
let's calculate
M = 5.98 10²⁴ + 7.35 10²²
M = 6.0535 10₂⁴24 kg
we substitute
R_cm = 1 / 6.0535 10²⁴ (0 + 7.35 10²² 3.84 )
R_cm = 4.66 10⁶ m
Because they are different they all show different traits.
