On a sunny, warm day, a student decides to fly a kite on the college green just to relax. His kite takes off and soars. He lets all 260 feet of the string out and attracts a crowd of onlookers. There is a slight breeze, and a spectator 100 feet away from the student notices that the kite is directly above her.
