Cannon A is located on a plain a distance L from a wall of height H. On top of this wall is an identical cannon (cannon B). Ignore air resistance throughout this problem. Also ignore the size of the cannons relative to L and H. The two groups of gunners aim the cannons directly at each other. They fire at each other simultaneously, with equal muzzle speed v 0 . What is the value of v 0 for which the two cannon balls collide just as they hit the ground?
