Suppose a 10.0 kg fireworks shell is shot into the air with an initial velocity of 69.0 m/s at an angle of 80.0° above the horizontal. At the highest point of its trajectory, a small explosive charge separates it into two pieces, neither of which ignite (two duds). One 9.00 kg piece falls straight down, having zero velocity just after the explosion. Neglect air resistance (a poor approximation, but do it anyway).

(a) At what horizontal distance from the starting point does the 9.00 kg piece hit the ground?
m
(b) Calculate the velocity of the 1.00 kg piece just after the separation.
m/s
(c) At what horizontal distance from the starting point does the 1.00 kg piece hit the ground?
m

During a fireworks display, a shell is shot into the air with an initial speed of 91.55 m/s at an angle of theta degrees above the horizontal. The fuse is timed to 8.21 seconds for the shell just as it reaches its highest point above the ground. If the horizontal displacement of the shell is 149.68 meters when it explodes, what is the height (in unit of meters) when the shell explodes? You must use g = 9.8 m/s2.
