A movie stunt actor drops from a helicopter that is 30.0 m above the ground and moving with a constant velocity. If this constant velocity of helicopter is 10.0 m/s vertically and 15.0 m/s along the horizontal towards the south, and if we ignore air resistance, where on the ground relative to the helicopter's initial position should the stunt mat be placed to allow for a successfully safe stunt jump?
