An airplane is moving at 350 km/hr. If a bomb is dropped from the airplane at 1.5 km, (a) with what velocity does the bomb strike the earth? (b) what is the bomb's range?
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Neglecting air resistance, the bomb's horizontal speed is constant at 350 kph.
\n" ); document.write( "You didn't spec what to use for Earth's gravity, so I'll use 10 m/sec/sec.
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "s = at^2/2
\n" ); document.write( "1500 = 10t^2/2
\n" ); document.write( "t^2 = 300
\n" ); document.write( "\"t+=+10sqrt%283%29\" seconds from release to impact.
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Vertical component
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "v = at = 100sqrt(3) m/sec
\n" ); document.write( "Speed at impact is the hypotenuse of the 2 components
\n" ); document.write( "Vertical: 100sqrt(3)
\n" ); document.write( "Horizontal: 350000/3600 m/sec = 875/9 m/sec
\n" ); document.write( "---> \"sqrt%2830000+%2B+875%5E2%2F81%29\" m/sec = ~ 198.6 m/sec
\n" ); document.write( "That's the speed at impact.
\n" ); document.write( "Did you want the velocity?
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "IDK what \"range of the bomb\" means.\r
