The Philippine Sports Commission plans to replicate the famous Torch lighting in the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona for the upcoming Palarong Pambansa. Filipino pride, Jasmin Figueroa, was chosen for this event. Based on the data, on average, the initial horizontal velocity of Jasmin’s arrow strike is 18.07 m/s which is also equal to its initial vertical velocity. However, the angle of her strike is still unknown. With this information, what could be the probable angle of Jasmin’s arms before launching the arrow. How fast is the arrow at this angle? How far should the cauldron be so that the arrow would hit it precisely? What is the maximum height reached by the arrow? Note that the height of the cauldron is as high as Jasmine’s arms during archery position. Prove your answer by computing the different components.
