Since she is unable to attract him, the caretaker aims her rifle with a sedative dart directly at the monkey and fires the dart with a speed of vd = 20.00 m/s (see figure). The cunning monkey is released the instant the dart leaves the barrel of the rifle, trying to fall to the ground and escape The caretaker is at d = 10.0 m from the base of the tree.
