Impulse and Momentum

Conservation of Momentum


<div class="wp-block-create-block-problemblock">A champagne bottle of mass 90 g has a 2 g cork in it.  The pressure built up in the bottle causes the cork to shoot out, as shown below.  If after the explosion, the bottle is moving directly to the left at 4 m/s, what is the velocity of the cork?<br /><img src="/old/images/conservationofmomentum.gif"  alt="conservation of momentum physics problem "></div>
