A mortar fires a shell of mass M which explodes into two pieces of mass `M/5` and `(4M)/(5)` at the top of the trajectory. The smaller mass falls very close to the mortar. In the same time bigger piece lands a distance D from the mortar. The shell would have fallen at a distance R from the mortar if there was no explosion. The value of D is (neglect air resistance)
