A firecracker breaks up into two pieces, one of which has a mass of 200 g and flies off along the +x-axis with a speed of 82.0 m/s. The second piece has a mass of 300 g and flies off along the +y-axis with a speed of 45.0 m/s.
 
  What is the total momentum of the two pieces? A) 361 kg  m/s at 56.3 from the +x-axis
  B) 93.5 kg  m/s at 28.8 from the +x-axis
  C) 21.2 kg  m/s at 39.5 from the +x-axis
  D) 361 kg  m/s at 0.983 from the +x-axis
  E) 21.2 kg  m/s at 56.3 from the +x-axis

Question 2

An electron has a relativistic momentum of 1.1  10-21 kg  m/s. What percent of its total energy is its kinetic energy?
 
  (melectron = 9.11 10-31 kg, c = 3.0  108 m/s)

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
