In a basketball game, the point guard while standing, intends to launch a fastbreak to the shooting guard, 16 m away, who is breaking toward their team's basket at a constant speed of 3.6 m/s. If the shooting guard is to catch the ball at a height of 1.5 m from the floor and 6 m further away while in a full stride to execute a lay-up, determine the minimum velocity and launch angle with which the point guard should throw the ball. The ball is to be launched by the point guard at the same height it will be caught.
