20. The orange is hanging 5.00 m above the ground as illustrated in the figure to the right. You fire the arrow at 37.0 m/s oriented 30.0° above the horizontal from a height of 1.40 m while standing 45.0 m away on your first try. You may neglect air resistance. Are you going to hit the orange? If no, how can you adjust yourself horizontally in order to hit it? A) Yes, no need to change the location horizontally B) No, stand 6.6 m away instead of 45 m C) No, stand 114.3 m away instead of 45 m D) Both answers B & C are correct
