You're in an airplane that flies horizontally with a speed of 1000 km/h (290 m/s) when an engine falls off. Neglecting air resistance, assume it takes 35 s for the engine to hit the ground. Find the height of the airplane and the horizontal distance that the aircraft engine falls. If the airplane somehow continues to fly as if nothing had happened, where is the engine relative to the airplane at the moment the engine hits the ground?

You are in an airplane that flies horizontally with speed 100 km/h when an engine falls off. Ignore air resistance and assume it takes 30 s for the engine to hit the ground. a. Show that the airplane is 4.5 km high. b. Show that the horizontal distance that the aircraft engines moves during its fall is about 833.0 m. c. If the airplane somehow continues to fly as if nothing had happened, where is the engine relative to the airplane at the moment the engine hits the ground?

You're in an airplane that flies horizontally with speed 1100 km/h (300 m/s ) when an engine falls off. Neglecting air resistance, assume it takes 27 s for the engine to hit the ground. a. Find the height of airplane. b.Find the horizontal distance that the aircraft engine falls. c.If the airplane somehow continues to fly as if nothing had happened, what is the distance between the engine and the airplane at the moment the engine hits the ground?
