an artillery shell is fired with an initial velocity of 300m/s at 53.5° above the horizontal. To clear an avalanche, it explodes on a mountainside 37.5s after firing. What are the x and y coordinates of the shell where it explodes, relative to its firing point?

(hrw8c9p15) A shell is fired from a gun with a muzzle velocity of 39 m/s, at an angle of 60° with the horizontal. At the top of the trajectory, the shell explodes into two fragments of equal mass (see the figure). One fragment, whose speed immediately after the explosion is zero, falls vertically. How far from the gun does the other fragment land, assuming that the terrain is level and that the air drag is negligible?

The army has acquired radar that can track an artillery shell in flight and determine its origin before it hits. The system erects a sensitive electronic plane over a broad area and can detect any projectile piercing that plane. After tracking the shell and plotting its path, system’s computer back tracks the trajectory to the firing location. The enemy has fired a shell at the radar station. The radar detects the shell at the coordinates (400 m, 75 m) and...
