Percy Panther is snoozing in an open-top artillery truck when he senses the presence of the mischievous Arnold Aardvark lurking beneath. He quietly releases the handbrake to escape down the hill inclined at an angle α.
Arnold Aardvark having quietly rigged a remote trigger, immediately fires the gun, launching a shell of mass m straight up from the truck, as shown in Fig. 6.4. The gun has a muzzle velocity \mathbf{v}_0, and the total mass of the truck and its strange driver is M. Determine the time and the location at which the shell impacts the ground, and find the location of Percy Panther at that time.
