A fireworks show is choreographed to have two shells cross paths at a height of 146 feet and explode at an apex of 176 feet under normal weather conditions. If the shells have a launch angle = 58° above the horizontal, determine the common launch speed vo for the shells, the separation distance d between the launch points A and B, and the time t from launch at which the shells explode.

PROBLEM NO. 1 A ball is launched eastward from the ground at 30kph at 45 degrees angle from the ground. A shooter will shoot the ball at the peak of its trajectory. The shooter is 50m away from the plane of the ball's trajectory. The launch point of the ball is 20m west from the plane of trajectory's nearest point to the shooter. The gun's muzzle is 1.2m from the ground and the exit velocity of the bullet is 2736kph. Determine the angle the gun should be shot and the time after the ball's launch should the gun's trigger be pulled. Neglect trigger to bullet exit time and air friction.
