Yes it will hit as monkey also has acc towards ground as g and same is the acc fr the bullet...Hence it will hit...Use eq. of motion and the bullet doenst go straight it follows parabolic path...rate me if useful...

Both the bullet & the monkey experience only accel. in the vertical direction....

If both start their respective motions @ the same instant.....

For the bullet ----- x = (usin@) t -1/2gt²

& fr the monkey ------ (H-x) = 1/2gt²

Solving those two equations fr x & t will give the desired result of whether or not the bullet will hit n if so then @ at wht time n location....

It wud finally give ...... t = Sqrt{H/usin@}

& x = H{1- g/(2usin@)}

"in a projectile motion , x and y directions are independent of each other" .........

as the bullet is released at the instant when monkey starts his fall........so it would be a direct hit........monkey dies!!!!!!
