An object of mass 10 kg is launched from the ground at t=0, at an angle of 37° above the horizontal with a speed of 30 m/s. At some time after its launch, an explosion splits the projectile into two pieces. One piece of mass 4 kg is observed at (105 m, 43 m) at t=2 s. Find the location of second piece at t=2 s.
