Three small identical spheres A, B, and C, which can slide on a horizontal, frictionless surface, are attached to three strings, 75 mm long, which are tied to a ring G. Initially the spheres rotate counterclockwise about the ring with a relative velocity of 0.75 m/s and the ring moves along the x axis with a velocity v0 = (0.4 m/s)i. Suddenly the ring breaks and the three spheres move freely in the xy plane with A and B following paths parallel to the y axis at a distance a = 130 mm from each other and C following a path parallel to the x axis. Determine

(a) The velocity of each sphere,

(b) The distanced.
