5 Two projectiles, each with a mass of 10 kg, are
fired simultaneously from the 1 Mg vehicle,
which is moving with an initial speed v 1=1.2 m/s,
as shown. Each projectile has a muzzle velocity
of 1200 m/s relative to the barrel. Calculate the
velocity v2 of the vehicle after firing.
Ans: v2=24.7 m/s
