    Answer:

    481 m

    Explanation:

    To fall 235 m, the time required is

    t = √(2H/g)

    t= √(2[tex]\times[/tex]235/9.8)

    t=6.92 seconds.

    The supplies will travel forward

    6.92 [tex]\times[/tex] 69.4 ≈ 481 m

    Therefore, the goods must be dropped 481  m in advance of the recipients.
