A body is projected with a speed 160 m/s at an angle `53^(@)` with the horizontal, At the highest point, body explodes into two pieces with mass ratio 1:3. Smaller piece comes to rest immediately after explosion. Find the distance of point from point of projection where heavier piece strikes the horizontal surface.
