A bird is flying on a straight level course at constant velocity of 150 km per hour at a height of 200 meters above the ground. A sling shot located on the ground fires a small stone with an initial velocity of 200m/s, at the instant when the plane is vertically above it. The inclination to which the sling should be shot with respect to the horizontal is degrees.
