A balloon is rising from the earth's surface. The ascent velocity v, = 2 (m/s) is constant. The horizonta component of the speed of the balloon due to the wind is v, = 4y, where y is the height of the balloon from the ground. Find the drift distance in the horizontal direction when the balloon rises y = 40 (m).
