2 CATGR Figure 3: Cruise missile and its payload end up in two different locations. 5. The engine of a cruise missile, mass m, runs out of fuel and stops at time t 0, The missile is then unpowered with a velocity of vo and altitude h above the ground (the ry plane in Fig 3). At just this moment, it drops its payload, a package of left-handed threaded locknuts (mass mi), to the waiting civil engineers below at point (xi, yi). The locknuts land on the heads of the engineers at time t t1 seconds later. Find: If we ignore drag, where is the cruise missile when the locknuts are hitting the civil engineers on the head?
