Veronica claims that she can throw a dart at a dartboard from a distance of 2 m and hit the 5 cm wide bullseye if she throws the dart horizontally with a speed of 15 m/s. she starts the throw at the same height las the top of the bulls-eye. is she able to hit the bullseye?

First, find the amount of time for the dart to hit the board using this equation: t = d/v

t = 2 m/ 15 m/s = 0.133 s

Then, find the height the dart has fallen from its initial point using this equation: h = 0.5gt²

h = 0.5(9.81 m/s²)(0.133 s)² = 0.0872 m or 8.72 cm

Since the diameter of the bull's eye is only 5 cm, and you started at the same level of the top of the bull's eye, that means the maximum allowance would only be 5 cm. Since it exceeded to 8.72 cm, it means that Veronica will not hit the bull's eye.
