Physics

1) A 1000 kg rocket travels in outer space at 5000 m/s. Therocket then separates into two sections: a 250 kg section thattravels at 8000 m/s, and a 750 kg section. All of this takes placein a straight line that you can consider as your x-axis. (Do notassume kinetic energy is constant throughout this process.)

A) What is the total momentum of the system before theseparation?

B) What is the total kinetic energy of the system before theseparation?

C) What is the final velocity of the more massive 750 kg rocketsection?

D) What is change in the system’s kinetic energy in Joules?
