A boy is standing from the top of a cliff 8 m from the ground and he has a bow which is aimed 40 degrees from the horizontal. He can release the bow with an initial velocity of 15 m/s. An animal is below the cliff and is moving towards the boy at a velocity of 5 m/s. For the bow to hit the animal, at what distance D should the animal be when the bow is fired?

A minigolf ball is on a perfectly horizontal surface, x = 2 m away from the center of the hole. There is a small obstacle in the way, so the ball cannot simply roll to the hole –it must go up in the air. The player is able to shoot with an initial speed v0 = 7 m/s. The ball can be launched at TWO possible angles with the horizontal for the ball to get in the hole. We want your to find these two angles.
