Question: A 13-kg projectile is passing through the origin O with a velocity v0 = (35 m/s)i when it explodes into two fragments A and B,

A 13-kg projectile is passing through the origin O with a velocity v0 = (35 m/s)i when it explodes into two fragments A and B, of mass 5 kg and 8 kg, respectively. Knowing that 3 s later the position of fragment A is (90 m, 7 m, -14 m), determine the position of fragment B at the same instant. Assume ay = -g = -9.81m/s2 and neglect air resistance.
