A parcel is connected to a flying drone as illustrated above. Note that the coordinate system is given
with +y pointed in the upwards direction. Holding the parcel, the drone takes off moving straight up
with a velocity of 8.40. m/s. Note that, as usual, y = 0 at the ground.
After 8.00 s, the drone accidentally releases the parcel! The parcel is in "freefall" immediately after it is
released, as defined in Lecture 7. Assume that the magnitude of the acceleration, g = 9.81 m/s?, and that
the drone continues with the same velocity after releasing the parcel. Ignore the effects of air-resistance.
Expert Solution
Step 1
Its a very simple but a confusing question. To answer this question we have to read the question at least three times and understand the situation. If we want to find the acceleration of any object we need three things
1. initial velocity
2. final velocity
3. Time interval between initial and final velocity
and we have to put that in equation
v = u + at from that we can calculate acceleration.
