Horizontal distance traveled = s = 500 m
u = 50 m/s
g = 9.8 m/s²

The horizontal velocity of the bomb remains constant at u = 50 m/s.
Time of flight = t = s / u = 500 / 50 = 10 sec.

Initial vertical velocity = 0
Height descended in time t = 10 sec.: h 
     h = u t + 1/2 g t²
        = 0 + 1/2 * 9.8 * 10² 
     h = 490 meters.

The aeroplane was flying at 490 m. above Earth's surface.

Answer:

h=490m

Explanation:

s=500m

u=50m/s

g=9.8ms^2

u=50

t=s/u

=> 500/50  =10

height decreased in time =10s:h

h=ut+1/2*gt^2

= 0+1/2*9.8*10^2

h=490m
