At what speed should an archerfish spit the water to shoot down an insect floating on the water surface located at a distance 0.800 m from the fish? Assume that the fish is located very close to the surface of the pond and spits the water at an angle 60degrees above the water surface.

An insect is resting on a leaf above the water surface at a horizontal distance 0.600 m away from the fish. The archerfish successfully shoots down the resting insect by spitting water drops at the same angle 60 degrees above the surface and with the same initial speed v as before. At what height h above the surface was the insect?
