An orange projectile is launched off a cliff having an initial velocity of 32.5 m/s @ 35 degrees relative to the
horizontal. At the same time a purple object on the ground is launched straight upward some initial speed. If the
cliff is 28 m above the ground, what must be the initial speed of the purple object if it is to collide with the
orange object 3.23 seconds after being launched? Assume the purple object is at the proper position for this to
Occur.
