SITUATION
SITUATION 4: A hot - air balloon is descending with a constant downward velocity of 20 m/s. If a ball is
thrown from the basket with an initial velocity of 15 m/s perpendicular to the path of the descending
balloon and, that a person sees the stone hit the ground 5.00 s after it was thrown. Assume that the
balloon continues its downward descent with the same constant speed of 20 m/s.
