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 using vector-valued functions to solve it (Calculus 3).
A note: h = 400 , b = 144 , a = 60

A plane flying horizontally at an altitude of 5 mi and a speed of 470 mi/h passes directly over a radar station. Find the rate at which the distance from the plane to the station is increasing when it is 7 mi away from the station. For full credit I expect to see a well-labeled picture. Show all work. Round your final answer to the nearest whole number. Do not round intermediate values. Include units of measure in your answer.
