MCQ

A bomb is dropped from an aeroplane moving horizontally at constant speed. When air resistance is taken into consideration, the bomb

A
Falls to earth exactly below the aeroplane
✓
Fall to earth behind the aeroplane
C
Falls to earth ahead of the aeroplane
D
Flies with the aeroplane

✓

Answer

Correct option: B.

Fall to earth behind the aeroplane

b
(b)Due to air resistance, it’s horizontal velocity will decrease so it will fall behind the aeroplane.
