QUESTION:

The pilot of an airplane pulls into a steep 45 climb at 300 km/h and releases a package at position A. Calculate the horizontal distance s and the time t from the point of release to the point at which the package strikes the ground. 2/90

ANSWER:


The horizontal distance, s, can be calculated using the formula s = vt, where v is the velocity (300 km/h ) and t is the time. The time, t, can be found by using the equation t = s/v, where s is the horizontal distance and v is the velocity.
