HORIZONTAL THROW IN VACUUM

After a flood, a group of people were left in one area. A rescue plane, flying horizontally at a height of 720 m and maintaining a speed of v = 50m / s, approaches the scene for a packet of medicines and food to be launched to isolated people. How far in the horizontal direction should the package be dropped so that it falls with people? Disregard air resistance and adopt g = 10m / s².

OBLIQUE THROW IN VACUUM

A body is thrown obliquely into the vacuum at an initial velocity of 100 m / s, in a direction that forms with the horizontal an angle x, such that sin (x) = 0.8 and cos (x) = 0.6. Adopting g = 10m / s², determine:

(a) the horizontal and vertical velocity component modules at the moment of launch;

(b) the instant at which the body reaches the highest point of its trajectory;

c) the maximum height reached by the body;

d) The range of the throw.
