A bomber flies horizontally with a speed of 225 m/s relative to the ground. The altitude of the bomber is 3010 m and the terrain is level. Neglect the effects of air resistance.

Question

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2 .
a) How far from the point vertically un- der the point of release does a bomb hit the ground?
Answer in units of m

Answer 1

h=g•t²/2
t=sqrt(2•h/g)
S=v(x) •t
