Upon spotting an insect on a twig overhanging water, an archer fish squirts water drops at the insect to knock it into the water. Although the insect is at distance d from the fish along a straight-line path at angle (as in the figure here), a drop must be launched at a different angle 8 if its parabolic path is to intersect the insect. If = 38.0' and d-0.900 m, what 6, is required for the drop to be at the top of the parabolic path when it reaches the insect? Number 53.66 Unit 15 Archer fish degrees Insect on twig

Flying Circus of Physics Upon spotting an insect on a twig overhanging water, an archer fish squirts water drops at the insect to knock it into the water. Although the insect is at distance d from the fish along a straight-line path at angle (as in the figure here), a drop must be launched at a different angle 8, if its parabolic path is to intersect the insect. If = 38.0' and d-0.900 m, what 80 is required for the drop to be at the top of the parabolic path when it reaches the insect? Number i 53.66 Unit Archer fish degrees Insect on twig
