An archer fish spies a meal of a grasshopper sitting on a long stalk of grass at the edge of the pond in which he is swimming. The fish is to successfully spit at and strike the grasshopper, which is 0.200 m away horizontally and 0.335 m above his mouth.
What is the minimum speed at which the archer fish must spit?

At what angle did she leave the board?
A projectile is shot from the edge of a cliff 125 m above ground level with an initial speed of 105 m/s at an angle of 37º with the horizontal. (a) Determine the time taken by the projectile to hit the ground. (b) Determine the range of the projectile as measured from the base of the cliff. At the instant just before the projectile hits the ground, find (c) the horizontal and vertical components of its velocity, (d) the magnitude of the velocity, and (e) the angle made by the velocity vector with the horizontal.
