To hit the target the crew drop the crate before the plane is directly over the target. It is because <span>because the cargo has forward velocity and therefore before it reaches the ground it travels some distance. The answer is A. Hope it helps. </span>

Answer:

a) Before the plane is directly over the target  

Explanation:

When a crate would be dropped from the cargo plane, its initial vertical velocity would be zero (free fall) but it would still have horizontal velocity of the moving plane. Therefore, the falling crate would transverse a parabolic path.

In order to make it hit the target, the crate should be dropped before the plane is directly over the target because of the horizontal component of net velocity will take the crate towards the target.

Thus, option a is correct.

roller coaster is in motion but your glasses are opposing and resisting that motion due to inertia....

1 there is a possibility that electrons move from wheels to the rail and vice versa which also means that it is producing some kind of electrical energy

A bike travels 4 miles in half an hour at what speed
Sloan [31]
8 miles per hour
because if it is moving at 4 miles every half hour that means you have to multiply it by two to get it in miles per hour and we all know that 4 times 2 is 8 so it would be 8 miles per hour =)
