A firecracker is thrown with velocity of `30 ms^(-1)` in a direction which makes an angle of `75^(@)`with the vertical axis. At some point on its trajectory, the firecracker splits into two identical pieces in such a way that one piece fall 27 m far from the shooting point. Assuming that all trajectories are contained in the same plane, how far will the other piece fall from the shooting point ? (Take `g = 10 ms^(-2)` and neglect air resistance)–

A

63 m or 144 m

B

72 m or 9 m

C

28 m or 72 m

D

63 m or 117 m
