1. Scenario I (Ignore air resistance)
A helicopter pilot accelerates vertically at until it reaches 50 m off the ground. At that time a package is dropped from the helicoptor and the helicopter continues moving upward.
Determine:
a) The helicopter reached the height of 50 m in seconds.
b) The package landed on the ground seconds from the time it was released.
c) The speed of the package when it hits the ground is m/s.
Scenario II (Ignore air resistance)
When the helicopter reached the 50 m height it leveled off and flew parallel to the ground at a speed of 12 m/s. At that moment, the package was dropped.
Determine:
d) The package landed m away on the ground from the spot directly below where it was dropped.
e) It took seconds for the package to land on the ground below.
