Reflecting telescope. Reflecting telescopes tend to have larger objective (due to the use of mirrors, mirrors are a lot cheaper than lenses) and have the ability to collect more light, while refracting telescopes are limited to objective lenses with smaller diameters due to their structural limitations (chromatic abbreviation, for example). Therefore, reflecting telescopes should be better at viewing faint distant stars

An airplane flies at 40 m/s at an altitude of 50 meters. The pilot drops a heavy package which falls to the ground. Where, appro
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

128 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Horizontal velocity (u) = 40 m/s

Height (h) = 50 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Horizontal distance (s) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the package to get to the ground.

This can be obtained as follow:

Height (h) = 50 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

50 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

50 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 50 / 4.9

t² = 10.2

Take the square root of both side

t = √10.2

t = 3.2 s

Finally, we shall determine where the package lands by calculating the horizontal distance travelled by the package after being dropped from the plane. This can be obtained as follow:

Horizontal velocity (u) = 40 m/s

Time (t) = 3.2 s

Horizontal distance (s) =?

s = ut

s = 40 × 3.2

s = 128 m

Therefore, the package will land at 128 m relative to the plane
