A light shines from the top of a pole 20 m high. Optimization problem?

A light shines from the top of a pole 20 m high. An object is dropped from the same height from a point 10 m away, so that its height at time t seconds is h(t) = 20 − 4.9t^2. How fast is the object’s shadow moving on the ground one second later?
