A projectile is fired with velocity v_(0) at angle 60^(@) with horizontal. At top os its trajectory it explodes into three fragments of equal masses. First fragment retraces the path, second moves vertically upwards with speed (3v_(0))/(2) . Speed of the third fragment is

A projectile of mass mis fired with an initial velocity v_(0) at an angle 0 to the horizontal. At its highest point, it explodes into two fragments of equal mass. One of the fragments falls vertically with zero initial speed. Since the only external force acting on the system is gravitational, the motion of centre of mass of the_ system (the fragments) follows the same parabolic path as the projectile would have followed if there had been no explosion. Force of explosion is internal, it cannot change the trajectory of the system.
