- Mid-Air Explosion A drone is flying horizontally at a speed of v; when a battery malfunction causes it to explode into 2 pieces. The pieces fall to Earth from a height of h due to gravity (ignore air resistance). Piece #1 has a mass of 1.00kg and lands a horizontal distance of x1 from the explosion spot. Piece #2 has a mass of 2.00kg and lands a horizontal distance of x2 from the explosion spot. 9 Vi 8.12™ h x1 X2 18.7m 10.8m m Х (no answer) 10 Correct Answer: 18.4 Vi h X1 X2 8.12 m S m 10.9m 18.1m Х (no answer) 2 CM Correct Answer: 18.3arrow_forwardAn ice skater performs a “scratch spin” (a tight, fast spin) by pulling her outstretched arms close to her body.
