question

A British warship fires a projectile due south near the Falkland Islands during World War I at latitude 50∘S50^{\circ} \mathrm{S}. If the shells are fired at 37∘37^{\circ} elevation with a speed of $800 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$, by how much do the shells miss their target and in what direction? Ignore air resistance.
