Answer to Problem 76E
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Consider the path of a projectile projected horizontally with a velocity of
In this model (in which air resistance is disregarded),
A cargo plane is flying at an altitude of
Calculation:
Consider the path of a projectile projected horizontally with a velocity of
Convert velocity mile/hour to feet/second.
Now put
Now
Hence, the crate travels horizontally
