A compressed spring fires vertically a small ball from the floor with an initial speed of 6.00 m/s. Simultaneously a student located exactly at a distance d above the spring releases a box without an initial speed. Determine the position of the student above the floor at which the ball is at its maximum elevation when it strikes the box.
