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" m s"^(-1)` and the second part of mass 2 kg moves with `8" m s"^(-1)` speed. If the third part flies off with `4" m s"^(-1)` speed, then its mass is
