    Here are the steps to solve this problem: (a) Using momentum conservation in the x and y directions: p_x(initial) = p_x(He) + p_x(Th) p_y(initial) = p_y(He) + p_y(Th) Since the initial momentum is zero: p_x(He) + p_x(Th) = 0 p_y(He) + p_y(Th) = 0 Solving the equations gives: v_x(Th) = -1.423×107 m/s v_y(Th) = 0 m/s (b) Kinetic energy

    Practice Problem

    An atom of uranium (m = 3.9529 × 10−25 kg) at rest


    decays spontaneously into an atom of helium (m = 6.6465
    × 10−27 kg) and an atom of thorium (m = 3.8864 × 10−25
    kg). The helium atom is observed to move in the positive
    x direction with a velocity of 1.423 × 107 m/s. (a) Find the
    velocity (magnitude and direction) of the thorium atom.
    (b) Find the total kinetic energy of the two atoms after the
    decay.
