Question

A rocket is fired from the ground as a projectile. At the top of its trajectory, at a horizontal distance of 260m from the launch point, the rocket breaks into two pieces: one fragment having 1/3 of the mass of the original rocket and the remaining piece having 2/3 of the original mass. The smaller piece falls straight down to the ground beneath the break-up point while the larger continues on. At what horizontal distance formt he launch point does the larger fragment land? (Hint: by one-dimensional kinematics, both pieces must hit the ground at the same time.)
