While playing frisbee, you get it stuck 9 meters above you

While playing frisbee, you get it stuck 9 meters above you in a tree. You know that if you hit the frisbee hard enough with the rock, you will dislodge the frisbee. If the 75 gram rock needs to be going 6.0 m/s when it hits the frisbee, how fast do you need to throw the rock? Assume there is no energy lost to thermal during this process. You must include a custom conservation of energy statement for this question for full credit. Show work for credit.
