    Intro Physics projectile problem: Archer fish and grasshopper

    There remains a constant x/horizontal component of velocity, the y vertical component of velocity can be zero at the point which the spit hits the object. Potentially, the y component of velocity could be nonzero at the top, however without any further information given, you can only assume the...
