Calvin is standing on the roof of a 6.50 m tall house. His tiger Hobbes is on the ground, some distance away from the house. Calvin is throwing water balloons at Hobbes: Calvin is throwing the water balloons with speed Vo at an angle of 0 below the horizontal. On his first try, Calvin hits Hobbes with the water balloon! Hobbes is 3.02 m horizontally from the base of the building and it takes 1.04 s for the balloon to hit him. Coordinate system: positive x points to the right and positive y points up.

A monkey is sitting at the top of a tree 20 m above ground level. A person standing on the ground wants to feed the monkey. He uses a bow and arrow to launch the food to the monkey. If the person knows that the monkey is going to drop from the tree at the same instant that the person launches the food, how should the person aim the arrow containing the food? Air resistance is small enough to be ignored. O He should aim it at the monkey. O He should aim it below the monkey. O He should aim it above the monkey.
