$A$ shell at rest at the origin explodes into three fragments of masses $1 \ kg$,$2 \ kg$,and $m \ kg$. The $1 \ kg$ and $2 \ kg$ pieces fly off with speeds of $5 \ m/s$ along the $x$-axis and $6 \ m/s$ along the $y$-axis,respectively. If the $m \ kg$ piece flies off with a speed of $6.5 \ m/s$,the total mass of the shell must be ......... $kg$.
