A uranium atom (U) traveling with a velocity of 5.0x105 ms-1 relative to the containing tube, breaks up into krypton (Kr) and barium (Ba) The krypton atom is ejected directly backwards at a velocity of 2.35 x 106 ms-1 relative to the banum after separation. With what velocity does the barium atom move forward relative to the tube? (You may assume that no other particles are produced and that relativistic corrections are small. What is the velocity of the krypton atom relative to the containing tube?
