Ok, here are the last 2 problems of my practice packet. I honestly, have no clue on the face of Earth how to even get started. If someone can guide me through a procedure. Tell me what to do, I can complete it myself. Honestly right now, i have no clue how to even start this problem. There are 2 parts to it!
A bomber flies horizontally with a speed of 284 m/s relative to the ground. The altitude of the bomber is 1470 m and the terrain is level. Neglect the effects of air resistance.
The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s^2.
A) How far from the point vertically under the point of release does a bomb hit the ground.
Answer in units of m.
Horizontal Speed: 284 m/s
Altitude: 1470 m
Acceleration of g: 9.8 m/s^2
NO CLUE, I AM REALLY CONFUSED!
I AM CONFUSED, what should I start this problem off by?
[Part 2]
At what angle from the vertical at the point of release must the telescopic bomb sight be set so that the bomb hits the target seen in the sight at the time of release? Answer in units of degrees.
I believe in this part I have to take the arc tangent. But I'm not sure of what because I do not know how to do the first part. Please help!
Need help on the first part to solve this part.
