Question

007 (part 1 of 3) 10.0 points An Alaskan rescue plane traveling 36 m/s drops a package of emergency rations from a height of 162 m to a stranded party of explorers he acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s Where does the package strike the ground relative to the point directly below where it was released? Answer in units of m 008 (part 2 of 3) 10.0 points What is the horizontal component of the ve- locity just before it hits? Answer in units of m/s 009 (part 3 of 3) 10.0 points What is the vertical component of the velocity just before it hits? (Choose upward as the positive vertical direction) Answer in units of m/s

Explanation / Answer

use the basic equation of motion in question 9-

V2=U2+ 2aS

where V is vertical component of velocity,

V2= 02+ 2*9.8*162

V2=3175.2

V=56.35 m/s
