launch, then where will the flare land (neglect air resistance)?
a. in front of the snowmobile
b. behind the snowmobile
c. in the snowmobile

2. Suppose a rescue airplane drops a relief
package while it is moving with a constant
horizontal speed at an elevated height.

will the relief package land relative to the
plane?

b. directly below the plane
c. below the plane and ahead of it
