An airplane is flying at a speed of 3.23 × 10^2 m/s in level flight at an altitude of 9.05 × 10^2 m. A package is to be dropped from the airplane to land on a target on the ground. Ignore air resistance. At what horizontal distance away from the target should the package be released so that it lands on the target? Express your answer in meters.

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?

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
452 km/hour at an altitude of 575 m . The positive x and y
directions are defined in the figure. For all parts, assume that
the "island" refers to the...
