$A$ ball at point '$O$' is at a horizontal distance of $7 \ m$ from a wall. On the wall,a target is set at point '$C$'. If the ball is thrown from '$O$' at an angle $37^{\circ}$ with the horizontal,aiming at the target '$C$',but it hits the wall at point '$D$',which is at a vertical distance '$y_0$' below '$C$'. If the initial velocity of the ball is $15 \ m/s$,find $y_0$ (given $\cos 37^{\circ} = \frac{4}{5}$). (in $m$)
