Question

An airplane flying horizontally with a speed of 500 km/h at a height of 1200 m drops a crate of supplies (see the following figure). If the parachute fails to open, how far in front of the release point (in km) does the crate hit the ground? Assume g = 9.8 m/s^2. 3.17 1.17 5.17 4.17 2.17

An airplane during horizontally with a speed of 50 km/h at a height of 1200 m drops 4 crates (see following figure). If the parachute fails to open, how far in front of the release point (in km) does the crate hit the ground? Assume that the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s^2.
