An object of mass $2m$ is projected with a speed of $100 \ m/s$ at an angle $\theta = \sin^{-1}(3/5)$ to the horizontal. At the highest point, the object breaks into two pieces of same mass $m$ and the first one comes to rest. The distance between the point of projection and the point of landing of the second piece (in metres) is $(g = 10 \ m/s^2)$.
