Question Stem

A projectile is thrown from a point O on the ground at an angle 45° from the vertical and with a speed m/s. The projectile at the highest point of its trajectory splits into two equal parts. One part falls vertically down to the ground, 0.5 s after the splitting. The other part, t seconds after the splitting, falls to the ground at a distance x meters from the point O. The acceleration due to gravity g = 10 m/s 2 .

(i) The value of t is____.
