Robin would like to shoot an orange in a tree with his bow and arrow. The orange is hanging ?f=5.00 myf=5.00 m above the ground. On his first try, Robin looses the arrow at ?0=32.0 m/sv0=32.0 m/s at an angle of ?=30.0°θ=30.0° above the horizontal. The arrow has an initial height of ?0=1.50 m,y0=1.50 m, and its tip is ?=53.0 mx=53.0 m away from the target orange. Treating the arrow as a point projectile and neglecting air resistance, what is...
