Help please?? Thanks!

A satellite, initially floating at rest in space, has thrusters pointers in the plusminusr. plusminusy. and plusminus; directions. Each thus the can deliver the same total impulse to the satellite. The thruster pointer in the -x direction fires, causing the satellite to acquire a velocity of c/3 in the +x direction. After that, the thuster pointed in the -y direction fires. Following that. the thruster pointed In the +x direction fires And finally, the thruster pointed In the +y direction fires. Assume (unrealistically) that the less of mass from the thrusters is negligible. So each thruster delivers a boost of the same magnitude to the satellite, hut In different directions. Relative to the reference frame In which the satellite was initially at rot: (i) what Is tin-satellite's final I-velocity, and (ii) what Is Sts final 3-velocity?

Explanation / Answer

The final 4 velocity of the satellite is x+y the final 3 velocity is -x-y
