A satellite that is spinning clockwise has four low-mass solar panels sticking out as shown; the mass of the satellite is 800 kg. A tiny meteor of mass 5 kg traveling at high speed rips through one of the solar panels and continues in the same direction but at reduced speed. In the figure v1 = 900 m/s and v2 = 440 m/s are the initial and final speeds of the meteor, and v = 15 m/s is the initial speed of the satellite in the x direction. The angle θ = 26°, h = 2 m, and R = 1.4 m.
Calculate the final velocity of the center of mass of the satellite:

you haven't attached the figure the question refers to

since the both objects are moving it has EK, so, u find their energy's and then once u have them u rearrange the formula of EK to find v since u already have EK and mass given
