In the future, MIT has attracted so many students that its buildings have become skyscrapers. Ben and Jerry decide to go ziplining together. Ben starts at the top of the Green Building, and ziplines to the bottom of the Stata Center. After waiting $a$ seconds, Jerry starts at the top of the Stata Center, and ziplines to the bottom of the Green Building. The Green Building is $160$ meters tall, the Stata Center is $90$ meters tall, and the two buildings are $120$ meters apart. Furthermore, both zipline at $10$ meters per second. Given that Ben and Jerry meet at the point where the two ziplines cross, compute $100a$.

A beam of light strikes $\overline{BC}$ at point $C$ with angle of incidence $\alpha=19.94^\circ$ and reflects with an equal angle of reflection as shown. The light beam continues its path, reflecting off line segments $\overline{AB}$ and $\overline{BC}$ according to the rule: angle of incidence equals angle of reflection. Given that $\beta=\alpha/10=1.994^\circ$ and $AB=AC,$ determine the number of times the light beam will bounce off the two line segments. Include the first reflection at $C$ in your count.
