Three particles of masses $10g, 20g$ and $40g$ are moving with velocities $10\widehat i,10\widehat j$ and  $10\widehat k$ $m/s$ respectively. If due to some mutual interaction, the first particle comes to  rest and the velocity of second particle becomes $\left( {3\widehat i + 4\widehat j\,\,} \right)\, m/s$, then the velocity of third particle is
