$A$ shell at rest at the origin explodes into three fragments of masses $1 \ kg$,$2 \ kg$,and $m \ kg$. The $1 \ kg$ and $2 \ kg$ pieces fly off with speeds of $5 \ m/s$ along the $x$-axis and $6 \ m/s$ along the $y$-axis,respectively. If the $m \ kg$ piece flies off with a speed of $6.5 \ m/s$,the total mass of the shell must be ......... $kg$.

$A$ body of mass $0.25 \, kg$ is projected with a muzzle velocity of $100 \, m/s$ from a tank of mass $100 \, kg$. What is the recoil velocity of the tank in $m/s$?

An isolated rail car of mass $M$ is moving along a straight,frictionless track at an initial speed $v_0$. The car is passing under a bridge when a crate filled with $N$ bowling balls,each of mass $m$,is dropped from the bridge into the bed of the rail car. The crate splits open and the bowling balls bounce around inside the rail car,but none of them fall out. Is the momentum of the rail car $+$ bowling balls system conserved in this collision?
