A helicopter is flying at `200 m` and flying at `25 ms^(-1)` at an angle `37^@` above the horizontal when a package is dropped from it.

The distance of the point O where the package lands is

A

80 m

B

100 m

C

200 m

D

160 m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
d. `s_y = v_yt - 1/2 "gt"^2`
`rArr -200 = 15t - 5t^2`
`rArr t = 8s`
`x = 20 xx 8 = 160m`
