Problem

A small projectile is launched with velocity v0v_{0} from the center of a spherical cavity of radius rr inside a massive sphere. The field inside the cavity is uniform and has magnitude gcavg_{\text{cav}}. Determine the angle θ\theta (with respect to the field lines) at which the projectile must be launched to hit the cavity wall at a point on the 'equator' of the cavity (relative to the launching point and field direction).
