A hot air balloon is moving vertically upwards at a constant rate of 9.0 m/s. As the balloon rises, a package is dropped from the balloon and it takes 5 s to hit the ground. How far did the package fall? Make sure to include a diagram of the physical situation, label know and unknown quantities with units, coordinate system. Please use grade 12 kinematics and label the variables as v1, v2, a (Acceleration), t (time), d (displacement) Thanks!
SS Prima Vista, a theater and cruise ship, sailed through the Atlantic for its one-week performance cruise. It left the Port de Marseille early morning with a velocity of 48 kph going north, then 40 kph 70° N of E, then headed straight for the Réstaurant Glacier le Commodore at 48 kph, which is 20° W of N. Determine the resultant vector using a graphical representation, head to tail method. Find the resulting components and the resultant vector.
