In the climax of a movie,the hero jumps from a helicopter and the villain chasing the hero also jumps at the same time from the same level. After some time,when they are at the same horizontal level,the villain fires a bullet horizontally towards the hero. Both the hero and the villain are falling with a constant downward acceleration of $2\ m/s^2$ due to their parachutes. Assuming the hero is within the range of the bullet and air resistance on the bullet is negligible,which of the following is correct?

  • A
    The bullet will hit the hero.
  • B
    The bullet will pass above the hero.
  • C
    The bullet will pass below the hero.
  • D
    The bullet will definitely hit the hero if both were falling with a constant acceleration of $4\ m/s^2$ instead of $2\ m/s^2$.
