An airplane flying horizontally at a constant speed of 350 km/h over level ground releases a bundle of food supplies. Ignore the effect of the air on the bundle. What is the bundle's initial vertical velocity?

Answer:

0 km/h vertically, horizontally yet 350 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

The bundle was inside the plane, so it start a free fall movement from rest, i.e., 0km/h, but of course the speed increases with gravity, at 9,8m/s^2 over time, but since here it is asked the vertical speed at the beginning, it is 0 km/h.
