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.

Which soil horizon is located closest to the earth's crust?
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer: O horizon

Horizons refers to the distinct layers of soil lying parallel to the earth surface. Horizons develop as a result of soil formation. Soil forms as a result of weathering or rocks and addition of organic matter from the decomposition of plant and animal waste. Each horizon differs from the others on the basis of color, texture, type of particles present in the soil, type of minerals present and amount of organic matter present in the soil.

O horizon is the soil horizon that is located closest to the earth's crust. This horizon consist of undecayed or partially decayed animal and plant waste like shedded leaves, bark, animal skin and feces. As, the matter remains undecomposed, therefore, this horizon consists of low amount of organic matter and it is less fertile for plant growth.
