1. A plane flying at a constant altitude (height) of 5120m and a speed of
192m/s drops a piece of cargo over water. How far (horizontally) form the
point of release does the package travel before it hits the water?

Expert Solution

Step 1

Write the value of height of the plane from the surface of water.

$h = 5120 m$

Write the constant velocity of the plane.

$v = 192 m / s$
