For an airplane whose speed is 60 m/s is flying at an altitude of 500 m over the ocean toward a stationary sinking ship, the horizontal distance  is mathematically given as

x=606m

What horizontal distance from the ship should the crew of the airplane drop a pump into the water next to the ship?

Generally, the equation for the y axis distance  is mathematically given as

y=vt+0.5gt^2

Therefore

500=0t+1.2(9.8)t^2

t=10.1s

In conclusion,  the horizontal distance

x=vt

x=60*10.1

x=606m
