For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for January 15, 1998

Elly: Difficult question, honey? - Can I help? Elizabeth: I dunno. Maybe. A guy is standing on an overpass 30 meters high. He has to drop a package into the back of a truck as it goes under the overpass. The truck is 100 meters away. If it starts from a velocity of zero and accelerates at a rate of 4.9 meters per second, squared... How many second should he wait, after the truck starts, to drop the package? Elly: That's easy!! - He shouldn't be dropping the package into the truck in the first place!!!

Or, by the time he figures it out, the truck will have passed under the overpass and be gone.
