An explosion blows a rock into three parts. Two pieces go off at right angles to each other. 1.00 kg piece with a velocity 12m/sec and the other 2.00 kg piece with a velocity 8m/sec. If the third piece flies off with a velocity 40m/sec, then the mass of the third piece is -

An explosion breaks a rock into three parts in a horizontal plane. Two of them go off at right angles to each other the first part of mass 1 kg moves with a speed of 12 ms^(-1) and the second part of mass 2 kg moves with 8 ms^(-1) speed. If the third part flies off with 4ms^(-1) speed, then its mass is
