A 40 kg artillery shell was fired from a cannon with an initial speed of 84 m/s at a 45° angle above the ground. Unfortunately, the shell was poorly made and exploded into two pieces 4 s after it was launched. One piece was five times heavier than the other. The heavier piece landed 600 m from the cannon. How far from the cannon (in m) did the lighter piece land?
