(b) In terms of its original range R, what is the range Rmax the rock can attain if it is launched at the same speed but at the optimal angle for maximum range?

A bomber is flying horizontally over level terrain at a speedof 275 m/s relative to the ground and at an altitude of3.00 km. (a) The bombardier releases one bomb. How fardoes the bomb travel horizontally between its release and itsimpact on the ground? Ignore the effects of air resistance.(b) Firing from the people on the ground suddenly incapacitatesthe bombardier before he can call, “Bombs away!”Consequently, the pilot maintains the plane’s originalcourse, altitude, and speed through a storm of flak. Whereis the plane relative to the bomb’s point of impact when thebomb hits the ground? (c) The plane has a telescopic bombsightset so that the bomb hits the target seen in the sight atthe moment of release. At what angle from the vertical wasthe bombsight set?
