A child is swinging a stone at the end of a string around in a circular path parametrized by x = r cos t i + r sin t j, where r is a constant. She wants to release the string at a particular moment so that the stone will strike a target at position (a, b), where a2 + b2 > r2. Find the time at which she should release the string.
