An eagle is flying horizontally at the altitude of 400 ft with a velocity of 16 ft/s when it drops a dead prey. A frog jumps 2 seconds later at a site facing away from the eagle and 60 ft from the point beneath the original position of the bird. If the frog catches the falling prey at the height of 144 ft, determine the initial speed and angle of inclination of the frog. Please use an advanced math way...

An airplane flying in the air with a constant velocity of 240 m/s horizontally experiences a force due to gravity, directed downwards with a magnitude of 4×10^6 N, and a force generated by the engines, directed forwards with a magnitude of 3 × 10^6 N. a. In light of Newton’s first law, why must there be a third force acting on the airplane? Calculate the magnitude of this third force, and explain its physical origin. Draw this third force on...
