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? Include an explanation!

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...

Packages are dropped at regular intervals from a low-flying plane to the level ground below. The plane is flying at a height of 183 m with a constant speed of 40.6 m/s and the packages are being dropped at a rate of one package every two seconds. Air resistance may be ignored. How far apart from each other will the bales land?
