The range of a projectile fired at an angle q with the horizontal and with an initial velocity of feet per second is where r is measured in feet. A golfer strikes a golf ball at 120 feet per second. Ignoring the effects of air resistance, at what angle must the golfer hit the ball so that it travels 140 feet? (Round answer to nearest angle.)
A) 18$\degree$
B) 14$\degree$
C) 20$\degree$
D) 5$\degree$
E) 9$\degree$
