A certain nucleus, at rest, spontaneously disintegrates into three particles. Two of them are detected; their masses and velocities are as shown in Fig. 11-30. (a) What is the momentum of the third particle, which is known to have a mass of 11.7 × 10 -27 kg? (b) How much kinetic energy in MeV appears in the disintegration process?
