An archer shoots an arrow at a 72.0 m distant target; the bull's-eye of the target is at same height as the release height of the arrow.   (a)At what angle in degrees must the arrow be released to hit the bull's-eye if its initial speed is 44.0 m/s?   (b)There is a large tree halfway between the archer and the target with an overhanging branch 3.23 m above the release height of the arrow. Will the arrow go over or under the branch?
