Homework Equations
[tex]\Delta[/tex]Y=VoYt+1/2gt2
The Attempt at a Solution
Rearranging the equation (using [tex]\Delta[/tex]Y=h), I get [tex]\sqrt{}2h/g[/tex] which, from what I understand, means it takes [tex]\sqrt{}2h/g[/tex] seconds for the monkey to reach the point at which the coconut was thrown. My problem is moving on from here. All I know is that the monkey is at the original height of the coconut and the coconut is some portion of b from it's starting point (for what it's worth, my guess is 9, but I'd rather not lose points that I don't have to trying to guess). Where should I go from here?
Thanks!
