An object of mass 5 kg is projecte with a velocity of 20ms^(-1) at an angle of 60^(@) to the horizontal. At the highest point of its path , the projectile explodes and breaks up into two fragments of masses 1kg and 4 kg. The fragments separate horizontally after the explosion, which releases internal energy such that K.E. of the system at the highest point is doubled. Calculate the separation betweent the two fragments when they reach the ground.

A cannon ball is fired with a velocity 200m / sec at an angle of 60° with the horizontal.
