A plane traveling horizontally to the right at 100 m/s flies past a helicopter that is going straight up at 20 m/s. From the helicopter’s perspective, the plane’s direction and speed are

1. Right and down, more than 100 m/s.

2. Right and up, more than 100 m/s.

3. Right and up, less than 100 m/s.

4. Right and down, less than 100 m/s.

5. Right and down, 100 m/s.

A hunter points his rifle directly at a coconut that he wishes to shoot off a tree. It so happens that the coconut falls from the tree at the exact instant the hunter pulls the trigger. Consequently,

1. the bullet passes above the coconut.

2. the bullet passes beneath the coconut.

3. the bullet hits the coconut.

4. This wasn’t discussed in Chapter 6.
