An object of mass 5 kg is projected with a velocity of 20 m/s at angle of 60° to the horizontal. At the highest point of its path, the projectile explodes and breaks up into two fragments of masses 1 kg and 4 kg. The fragments separate horizontally after the explosion. The explosion releases internal energy such that the kinetic energy of the system at the highest point is doubled. If the separation between the two fragments when they reach the ground is x, then find the value of x/(5sqrt(3)) .
