In a carnival booth, you win a stuffed giraffe if you toss a quarter into a small dish. The dish is on a shelf above the point where the quarter leaves your hand and is a horizontal distance of 2.1 m from this point (the figure (Figure 1)). If you toss the coin with a velocity of 6.4 m/s at an angle of 60 ° above the horizontal, the coin lands in the dish. You can ignore air resistance.

In a carnival booth, you win a stuffed giraffe if you toss a quarter into a
small dish. The dish is on a shelf above the point where the quarter
leaves your hand and is a horizontal distance of 2.1 m from this point
(the figure (Figure 1)). If you toss the coin with a velocity of 6.4 m/s at
an angle of 60 ° above the horizontal, the coin lands in the dish. You
can ignore air resistance.
