A suspicious package is sliding on a frictionless surface when it explodes into three pieces of equal masses and with the velocities:
(1) 7.0 m/s, north;
(2) 4.0 m/s 30 degrees south of west;
(3) 4.0 m/s 30 degrees south of east.
(a)What is the velocity(both magnitude & direction) of the package before it explodes?
(b) What is the displacement (both magnitude & direction) of the center of mass of the three-piece system (with respect to the point the explosion occurs) 3.0s after the explosion?
