Answer:

\theta = 49.56 degree

Explanation:

Relative horizontal velocity of plane with respect to the car is given as

v_r = v_p - v_c

so we have

v_p = 215 km/h

v_c = 155 km/h

now we have

v_r = 215 - 155

v_r = 60 km/h

v_r = 16.67 m/s

Now time taken by the object to drop the vertical height is given as

y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

78 = \frac{1}{2}(9.81)t^2

t = 3.98 s

so the distance of the car must be

d = v_r\times t

d = 16.67 \times 3.98

d = 66.47 m

Angle of the car with horizontal is given as

tan\theta = \frac{y}{x}

tan\theta = \frac{78}{66.47}

\theta = tan^{-1}(1.17)

\theta = 49.56 degree

Answer:

2 m/s^2, west

Explanation:

Vf=final velcoity

Vi=initial velocity

t=timw

a =  \frac{vf - vi}{t}

=

\frac{15 - 25}{5}

= - 2 m/s^2

The - changes direction and makes it opposite

2 m/s, west
