Answer:

 t = 23.255 s,   x = 2298.98 m,    v_y = - 227.90 m / s

Explanation:

After reading your extensive writing, we are going to solve the approach.

The initial speed of the plane is 250 miles / h and it is at an altitude of 2650 m; In general, planes fly horizontally for launch, therefore this is the initial horizontal speed.

As there is a mixture of units in different systems we are going to reduce everything to the SI system.

         v₀ₓ = 250 miles h (1609.34 m / 1 mile) (1 h / 3600 s) = 111.76 m / s

         y₀ = 2650 m

Let's set a reference system with the x-axis parallel to the ground, the y-axis is vertical. As time is a scalar it is the same for vertical and horizontal movement

Y axis  

       y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

the initial vertical velocity when the cargo is dropped is zero and when it reaches the floor the height is zero

       0 = y₀ + 0 - ½ g t²

       t = \sqrt{  \frac{2 y_o}{g} }

       t = √(2 2650/ 9.8)

       t = 23.255 s

Therefore, for the cargo to reach the desired point, it must be launched from a distance of

       x = v₀ₓ t

       x = 111.76 23.255

       x = 2298.98 m

at the point and arrival the speed is

        vₓ = v₀ₓ = 111.76

     

vertical speed is

         v_y = v_{oy} - gt

          v_y = 0 - gt

          v_y = - 9.8 23.25 555

         v_y = - 227.90 m / s

the negative sign indicates that the speed is down

in the attachment we have a diagram of the movement

What is the equilibrium line of a glacier?
drek231 [11]
The equilibrium line<span> separates the ablation zone and the accumulation zone; it is the altitude where the amount of new snow gained by accumulation is equal to the amount of ice lost through ablation. The upper part of a </span>glacier<span>, where accumulation exceeds ablation, is called the accumulation zone.</span>

A student says that a speed of 50 m/s is faster than a speed of 140 km/h because the number is bigger. What would you say to the
denis23 [38]

Yes you are right but sometimes just because a number is  bigger doesnt always make it so.

What is happening to the velocity of an object if it has a negative acceleration?
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

<h3>According to our principle, when an object is slowing down, the acceleration is in the opposite direction as the velocity. Thus, this object has a negative acceleration. In Example D,<u> the object is moving in the negative direction</u> (i.e., has a negative velocity) and is speeding up.</h3>

Explanation:

So it would be decreasing if its moving towards the negative!

Explanation:

The legend of King Arthur is well-known in literature. Based on Unsolved Mysteries of History, there is little to suggest it is true. Do you think it is important for people to believe in legends like King Arthur even if there is little evidence to support them? Why or why not? Write a short (3 paragraphs) explanatory essay stating your opinion. Justify your opinion and conclusions with relevant textual evidence (quotes or paraphrased ideas from sources) and background knowledge. Remember to use relevant vocabulary from the text in your essay.l
