A small airplane flying horizontally with a speed of 129 mi/hr at an altitude of 260 ft above a remote valley drops an emergency medical package at A. The package has a parachute which deploys at B and allows the package to descend vertically at the constant rate of 5.9 ft/sec. If the drop is designed so that the package is to reach the ground 24 seconds after release at A, determine the horizontal lead L so that the package hits the target.

Multirotor copters (e.g., drones) use multiple fixed propellers to create a downdraft. The momentum of the downdraft must be balanced by the lift force of the drone. Consider plans to fly the same drone to plan a bridge installation in the mountains of Colorado (elevation 7000 ft) to a pipeline installation over the Allegheny mountains in Pennsylvania (elevation 2000 ft). Assuming the drone is capable of flying in each situation and that fair weather exists in each situation, which would differ between the power requirements in these scenarios?
