If a total of 1250 offspring were obtained from your cross, determine the number of offspring that you would expect to obtain that represent a single crossover event between pr and vg if interference does not occur.

answer; i believe that the correct answer is (d) a very small amount of mass

initial speed when it is dropped is 150 ft/s

now at the same moment the acceleration due to gravity is perpendicular to its velocity

so as we know that

now we have centripetal acceleration a = 32 ft/s^2 as its perpendicular to velocity

while tangential acceleration at the same moment will be zero

so

now radius of curvature is given as

so the radius of curvature just after it is dropped is 703.125 ft
