Question

A hunter points his rifle directly at a coconut that she 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, A. The bullet passes above the coconut B. The bullet hits the coconut C. The bullet passes beneath the coconut

Answer 1

Answer:

B. The bullet hits the coconut

Explanation:

The hunter fired a bullet and hit the coconut he wanted to drop from the tree. It may not seem so, since the coconut fell as soon as the hunter pulled the trigger, but a rifle bullet has a speed equal to 3,500 km / h, which is too fast for our eyes to be able to observe the moment when the bullet hit the coconut.

However, it would be quite a coincidence that exactly the coconut that the hunter aimed for fell naturally without the influence of the bullet. Because of this, we can say that the hunter hit the coconut.
