Question: A 2 1 0 kg rocket in deep space moves with a velocity of ( 1 2 3 . 6 m / s ) i

A 210 kg rocket in deep space moves with a velocity of (123.6 m/s) i+(38 m/s j) j.
Suddenly it explodes into three pieces, with the first 78.56 kg moving at (-321 m/s) i +(234 m/s) j and the second 55.26 kg moving at (14.5 m/s) i +(88.5 m/s) j.
Find the velocity of the third piece.
