A projectile is fired from a gun with an initial velocity of 400 m/s at an angle M2 of 53° above the horizontal shown in M CM the figure. When the projectile is at the top of its trajectory, an internal explosion causes a separation into two parts of equal masses. One part falls to the ground as though it has been released from rest at that point. Find the distance between the gun and the point of impact of the second part immediately after the explosion. (Take g = 10 m/s², cos 53° = 0.6 and sin 53° = 0.8.)
