question mark

A firecracker is thrown with velocity of 30m/s in a direction which makes an angle of 75` with vertical axis. At some point on its trajectory, the firecracker splits into 2 identical pieces in such a way that one piece falls 27m far from shooting point. Assuming that all trajectories are contained in same plane, how far will other piece fall from the shooting point? (g=10m/s2 , air resistance neglected)

Hi,

the range of the projecitle if it hasn’t exploded,
R = (u²sin2 $\Theta$ )/g
Since, no external force was there, so COM will be moving on the original trajectory.
When the parts are about to hit the ground, (origin is the point of shooting)
m *R = (m/2) * 27 + (m/2) * x

Find x from the above equation.

thanks,.

An object of mass m = 0.25 kg oscillates in a fluid at the end of a vertical spring of springconstant kH = 85 N/m, see Fig.1. The effect of the fluid resistance is governed by thedamping constant b = 0.07kg/s.(i) Find the period of the damped oscillation.(ii) By what percentage does the amplitude of the oscillation decrease in each cycle?
