To determine where the package lands, we need to consider the horizontal motion of the helicopter and the vertical motion of the package.
The horizontal speed of the helicopter is given as 40 m/s, which means it maintains a constant horizontal velocity throughout the flight.
For the vertical motion of the package, the package is dropped from the helicopter. So, the initial vertical velocity of the package is zero.
The horizontal distance traveled by the package is influenced solely by the horizontal velocity of the helicopter. Since the helicopter is flying horizontally at a constant speed, the package will continue to move horizontally with the same velocity.
Therefore, the package will land directly below the helicopter.
So, the correct answer is 5. Directly below the helicopter.
