A 75 kg shell is fired with an initial speed of 125 m/s at an angle 55
Question:
A 75 kg shell is fired with an initial speed of 125 m/s at an angle 55° above horizontal. Air resistance is negligible. At its highest point, the shell explodes into two fragments, one four times more massive than the other. The heavier fragment lands directly below the point of the explosion. If the explosion exerts forces only in the horizontal direction, how far from the launch point does the lighter fragment land?
