A plane is moving at 75.0 m/s, and a package with weather instruments is ejected horizontally from the plane at 15.0 m/s, perpendicular to the direction of the plane. If the vertical velocity vv (in m/s), as a function of time t (in s) of fall, is given by vv = 9.80t, what is the velocity of the package after 2.00 s (before its parachute opens)?
