Problem 5: A student throws a water balloon at an initial angle 0 = 38° above the
horizontal with an initial speed vo from a height h = 1.8 m. The target is located on the
ground at a horizontal distance d = 7.5 m from the student's feet. Assume that the
balloon moves without air resistance. Use a Cartesian coordinate system with the
origin at the balloon's initial position.
