Experiencing a constant horizontal 1.10 m/s wind, a hot-air balloon ascends from the launch site at a constant vertical speed of 2.70 m/s. at a height of 202 m, the balloonist maintains constant altitude for 10.3 s before releasing a small sandbag. how far from the launch site does the sandbag land?

d=101 m

Explanation:

The time taken to reach the 202m is given by:

the problem states that the balloonist maintain that altitude for 10.3 seconds more, so:

if the bag falls straight down:

if the bag is affected by the velocity of the wind we need to calculate the time that the bag takes to reach the ground.

the total time would be:

well, you would divide 135 by 33 to get your answer. then that is how many seconds it would take. boardman should fly about 132 m or 4.090909090909091 seconds.

jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system, having a mass and radius that are respectively, 318 and 11.2 times that of earth. suppose that an object falls from rest near the surface of each planet and that the acceleration due to gravity remains constant during the fall. each object falls the same distance before striking the ground. determine the ratio of the time of fall on jupiter to that on earth.
