Question

Please use the information in the picture to answer the question: How fast must it have leapt from the water to reach a such a great height and speed. If you stand at the bow where you can reach up to a height of 3m above the water. You can only catch a fish if it is traveling under 8.5m/s when it reaches you. Will you be able to catch the fish? Find the speed of the fish at your location. Hint: use energy conservation.

Suddenly, you see a flash of silver: an Agujon needlefish (Tylosurus acus) leaping over your boat. At the top
its trajectory, you estimate that it is 5.0 m above the surface of the water and travelling at 6.0 m/s.
