Finding the angle of a dive bomber droping a bomb.
Homework Statement A dive bomber has a velocity of 275 m/s at an angle θ below the horizontal. When the altitude of the aircraft is 2.15 km, it releases a bomb, which subsequently hits a target on the ground. The magnitude of the displacement from the point of release of the bomb to the target...- LVanderlinden
