Assume that air resistance is ignored.
Note:
The distance, h, of a falling object with initial vertical velocity of zero at time t is
h = (1/2)gt²
where
g = 9.8 m/s²
The initial vertical velocity of the supplies is 0 m/s.
It the time taken for the supplies to reach the ground is t, then
(50 m) = (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(t s)²
Hence obtain
t² = 50/4.9 = 10.2041
t = 3.1944 s
The horizontal distance traveled at a speed of 100 m/s is
d = (100 m/s)*(3.1944 s) = 319.44 m
Answer: 319.4 m (nearest tenth)

The acceleration is
Explanation:
We can solve the problem by applying Newton's second law of motion: in fact, the net force acting on an object is equal to the product between the mass of the object and its acceleration. Therefore we can write:
where:
is the resultant force acting on the object
m is its mass
a is its acceleration
In this problem, we have the following forces acting on the system:
(forward)
(backward)
So, Newton's second law can be rewritten as:
where:
m = 1050 kg is the mass of all the students
Solving the formula for a, we find the acceleration of the system:
