Meriam, Kraige & Bolton β Kinematics of Particles: Problem 2_59
2/59 As part of a circus performance, a man is attempting to throw a dart into an apple which is dropped from an overhead platform. Upon release of the apple, the man has a reflex delay of 215 milliseconds before throwing the dart. If the dart is released with a speed \(v_0 = 14 \text{ m/s}\), at what distance \(d\) below the platform should the man aim if the dart is to strike the apple before it hits the ground?
