A helicopter with a velocity of 160 km/hr at elevation 600 m above sea level dropped supply bags to hit a campsite situated at elevation 300 m above sea level. How many kilometers from the campsite should the bags be dropped so that they will fall within the campsite? Disregard wind velocity and atmospheric pressure.
