What is the speed of the heavier fragment


An unstable particle at rest breaks up into two fragments of unequal mass. The mass of the lighter fragment is equal to 2.40 multiply.gif 10-28 kg and that of the heavier fragment is 1.67 multiply.gif 10-27 kg. If the lighter fragment has a speed of 0.893c after the breakup, what is the speed of the heavier fragment?
