  1. An airplane flying horizontally at an elevation of 0.75 km, with a constant speed of 350 km/hr, over level ground, releases a bundle of food supplies. What is its horizontal and vertical velocity component just before hitting the ground? If the airplane’s speed were instead, 450 km/hr, would the time of fall be larger, smaller, or the same?

1. An airplane flying at an altitude of 1000m and at a speed of 500 m/s wants to drop a food package to a village below. Set the frame of reference so the direction the plane is traveling in is the positive in the horizontal component and downwards is the positive direction in the vertical component. (a) How much time will it take for the food to reach the village? (i) Fill in what is given to you for each...

A seagull flying horizontally over the ocean at a constant speed of 3.15 m/s carries a small fish in its mouth. It accidentally lets go of the fish, and 1.85 s after letting go the fish lands in the ocean. (a) Just before reaching the ocean, what is the horizontal component of the fish's velocity? Ignore air resistance. Assume the bird is initially traveling in the positive x direction. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) __________ m/s...

You drop a package from an airplane flying at a constant speed in a straight horizontal line. From the same height and time, one red ball is dropped and another blue ball is fired horizontally. The air resistance can be neglected. Which will hit the ground first, the package, the red ball, or the blue ball? Include an explanation!

1.You are in a plane that flies horizontally with speed 900 km/h ( 250 m/s) when an engine falls off. Neglecting air drag, assume it takes 25 seconds for the engine to hit the ground.     (a) How high was the plane flying?     (b) What is the horizontal distance that the engine covers before hitting the ground?     (c) If the plane somehow continuous to fly as if nothing had happened, where is the engine relative to the airplane...

4. A pilot flying from Honolulu to California flies at an airspeed of 300.0 m/s (“airspeed” = airplane’s speed through the surrounding air) with her airplane pointed 70.0˚ to the east of north. However, the air itself is moving with a 50.0-m/s windspeed blowing due east. When the pilot adds together the two vectors of her airspeed and the windspeed, she gets her groundspeed: the airplane’s actual velocity relative to the ground below. (Even though these are called “speeds” by...

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...
