A circus clown weighing 175 pounds is fired from a cannon at 50 degrees above the horizontal. The clown lands in a circular net that has a radius of 10 feet and located 9.1 feet above the ground. The closest edge of the net is 119 feet from the cannon. It takes 3.00 seconds for the clown to travel through the air and land in the exact center of the net. What was the initial velocity of the clown in ft/s? Please help!
