An object of mass $2m$ is projected with a speed of $100 \ m/s$ at an angle $\theta = \sin^{-1}(3/5)$ to the horizontal. At the highest point, the object breaks into two pieces of same mass $m$ and the first one comes to rest. The distance between the point of projection and the point of landing of the second piece (in metres) is $(g = 10 \ m/s^2)$.

An explosion blows a stationary rock into three parts. Two parts of masses $1 \,kg$ and $2 \,kg$ move at right angles to one another with velocities $12 \,ms^{-1}$ and $8 \,ms^{-1}$, respectively. If the velocity of the third part is $4 \,ms^{-1}$, the mass of the rock is (in $\,kg$)

$A$ shell of mass $m$ moving with velocity $v$ suddenly breaks into $2$ pieces. The part having mass $m/3$ remains stationary. The velocity of the other part will be

$A$ projectile of mass $m$ is projected from ground with a speed of $50 \, m/s$ at an angle of $53^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. It breaks up into two equal parts at the highest point of the trajectory. One particle comes to rest immediately after the explosion. The distance between the pieces of the projectile when they reach the ground is: (in $, m$)
