Ajetliner can fly 5.6 hours on a full load of fuel. without any wind it flies at a speed of 2.25 x 102 m/s. the plane is to make a round-trip by heading due west for a certain distance, turning around, and then heading due east for the return trip. during the entire flight, however, the plane encounters a 71.9-m/s wind from the jet stream, which blows from west to east. what is the maximum distance (in kilometers) that the plane can travel due west and just be able to return home?

Ok what do you need with

Since you have not included the experiment situation and the data, of course, i can not give you specific details about it. but i can you with this question.1) i will assume that the motion is projectile (parabolic) motion.2) yes, the horizontal distance depends on the horizontal velocity as, naming vx the horizontal velocity and t the time, it is: x = vx × t3) now, observe that the flight time depends on the vertical velocity as, naming voy the initial vertical velocity, t the time and y the vertical distance before reaching the ground: y = yo + voy×t - gt² / 2.the higher the initial vertical velocity (voy) the longer the object will be flying and so t will be higher in the equation for the horizontal distance.that explains the relationship between the horizontal distance and the horizontal velocity.
