A relief airplane is delivering a food package to a group of
people stranded on a very small island. The island is too small for
the plane to land on, and the only way to deliver the package is by
dropping it. The airplane flies horizontally with constant speed of
483 km/hour at an altitude of 825 m . The positive x and y
directions are defined in the figure. For all parts, assume that
the "island" refers to the...

A plane is dropping supplies to a raft adrift on the ocean. Just
before the plane drops the package, it dives at an angle of 25
degrees (relative to the horizontal). The package's inital velocity
is also declined by 25 degrees. The plane is at an altitude of
h=300m and if flying at a constant speed of v=90m/s when the
package is dropped. There is a strong current that is pushing the
raft at a constant rate with v_raft =...
