Problem In a relief operation mission involving a helicopter h distance above the ground traveling with a horizontal velocity vx. What should be the expression for the horizontal distance dx at which you release the relief package so that it will arrive to the survivors at the right place? (Neglect the effect of air resistance) Solution To determine this, we must first derive the time it takes for the relief package to reach the survivors. We use this equation -h = vinitial-yt + (1/2)ay________________ If we just drop the package from the helicopter, the equation above becomes ________________=________________ + (1/2)ay_____________________ Substituting ay = -g then simplifying results to t = sqrt( _____________/______________ ) which is the time it takes for the object to reach the ground. Since the package will just travel at a constant velocity in the x-axis, thus dx = vxt Substituting the time taken by the package to reach to ground results to: dx = ( _________ )( sqrt…
A position function is given by F(t)= (10m+20t)i-5t²j. What is the velocity of the object it describes at t=2.0s?

O They are both constant, where the x-component is a positive number and the y-component is the local acceleration due to gravity. none of the given choices O They both change as a function of position along the parabolic path. They are both constant, where the x-component is zero and the y-component is the local acceleration due to gravity. O They both change, but there is insufficient information given.
You have been daydreaming while studying, and watching student pilots take lessons at the Columbus airport. A plane flying at a constant 177.5 m/s suddenly stalls. If the acceleration during the stall is 9.8 m/s² directly downward, the stall lasts 15.8 s, and the plane was initially climbing at 35.5 degrees above the horizontal, what is the speed of the plane at the instant that the stall ends? Your Answer: units Answer
Suppose you throw a baseball straight up into the air at t = 0. The ball reaches a maximum height of 22.5 meters above its starting position. Ignore air resistance for this problem. (a) What was the initial velocity of the ball at the moment it left your hand? Hint: the velocity goes to zero at the highest point of the motion. (b) At what time (in seconds) did the ball reach its maximum height? (c) If you threw the ball up into the air with double the initial velocity that you found in part (a), how high would it go?
A red ball is thrown down with an initial speed of 1.1 m/s from a height of 28 meters above the ground. Then, 0.5 seconds after the red ball is thrown, a blue ball is thrown upward with an initial speed of 24.3 m/s, from a height of 0.9 meters above the ground. The force of gravity due to the earth results in the balls each having a constant downward acceleration of 9.81 m/s?.
