Your opponent is operating a model helicopter in a simulated battle. You have a gun that fires paintballs at a speed of41m/s.The helicopter is hovering17mabove the ground (vertically) and is18mfrom you (horizontally). Just before you fire, the helicopter dives at twice the acceleration due to gravity. Assume that you are able to correct your aim instantly. What angle must your gun make with the horizontal to hit the helicopter on its way down? (Assume you are positioned at the origin. The +x-axis is to the right and the +y-axis is up. The helicopter is to the right of you at the position indicated above. Neglect the height of the gun relative to the ground.)
