Respuesta :

Answer:

Position B

Explanation:

The package when it is dropped from the airplane will still be traveling  forward at the same speed as the aircraft. Since air resistance is ignored there is nothing affecting its horizontal velocity, so the package will hit the ground underneath the plane as they both move forward.
