1.36 A plane, which is flying horizontally at a constant speed v, and at a height h above the sea,must drop a bundle of supplies to a castaway on a small raft. (a) Write down Newton's second lawfor the bundle as it falls from the plane, assuming you can neglect air resistance. Solve your equationsto give the bundle's position in flight as a function of time t. (b) How far before the raft (measuredhorizontally) must the pilot drop the bundle if it is to hit the raft? What is this distance if vo = 50 m/s,100 m, and g≈ 10 m/s²? (c) Within what interval of time (At) must the pilot drop the bundle ifit is to land within 10 m of the raft?h-

True / False: In an elevator the acceleration is magically measured to be -3.00 m/s2 (where + is up and – is down) I therefore know that the elevator is moving down.
The position F of a particle moving in an xy plane is given by: F=(200*-5.002)i + (6.00–7.00*)} with F in meters and t in seconds.

A cargo plane is moving with a horizontal velocity ofv+230 m/s at a height of y 1130 m above level ground as shown in the figure below when it releases a package. Ignoring air resistance, how much time, in seconds, will it take the package to reach the ground? (Express your answer to the nearest tenth of a second.)
Against all laws and regulations, a child throws their teddy bear off the top of the CN Tower with a velocity of 11 m/s [53o above horizontal]. If the CN Tower is 550 m tall, and air resistance is ignored, find: The time it takes for the teddy bear to hit the ground. The horizontal distance travelled by the teddy bear. The velocity of the teddy bear as it strikes the ground.
A football is thrown with an intial velocity of 16.9 m/s at 23.9 degrees above (x). When the football is at the highest point above the ground what is the velocity? Air resistance doesn't have an effect.
