A hot-air balloonist, rising vertically with a constant velocity of magnitude 5.0 m/s, releases a sandbag at an instant when the balloon is 40.0 m above the ground. After it is released, the sandbag is in free fall. (a) compute the position and velocity of the sandbag 1.0 s after its release. (b) how many seconds after its release will the sandbag strike the ground?
