How much kinetic energy did the heavier piece acquire

Reference no: EM13296689

An explosion breaks an object initially at rest into two pieces, one of which has 1.6 times the mass of the other. If 7100 J were released in the explosion, how much kinetic energy did the heavier piece acquire? (Momentum is conserved!) Answer in Joules, please show all work.
