A large balloon has been tied with a rope and it is floating in the air. A person has observed the balloon from the top of a building at angle of elevation of `theta_(1)` and foot of the rope at an angle of depression of `theta_(2 )`. The height of the building is h feet. Draw the diagram for this data.

A circus wishes to develop a new clown act. Fig. (1) shows a diagram of the proposed setup. A clown will be shot out of a cannot with velocity v_(0) at a trajectory that makes an angle theta=45^(@) with the ground. At this angile, the clown will travell a maximum horizontal distance. The cannot will accelerate the clown by applying a constant force of 10, 000N over a very short time of 0.24s . The height above the ground at which the clown begins his trajectory is 10m . A large hoop is to be suspended from the celling by a massless cable at just the right place so that the clown will be able to dive through it when he reaches a maximum height above the ground. After passing through the hoop he will then continue on his trajectory until arriving at the safety net. Fig (2) shows a graph of the vertical component of the clown's velocity as a function of time between the cannon and the hoop. Since the velocity depends on the mass of the particular clown performing the act, the graph shows data for serveral different masses. From figure 2, approximately how much time will it take for clown with a mass of 60 kg to reach the safety net located 10 m below the height of the cannot?
