The problem asks for the **initial vertical component of velocity** when a bundle of food supplies is dropped from an airplane flying horizontally at a constant speed of 350 km/h.

### Key Points:
- **Horizontal Speed of Airplane**: 350 km/h (constant).
- **No air resistance**: We ignore air effects.
- **Bundle released**: From a level flying airplane.

### Solution:
When the airplane releases the bundle, the **horizontal velocity** of the bundle will be the same as that of the airplane (350 km/h), but in the vertical direction, the initial velocity is affected by gravity.

Since the airplane is flying **horizontally**, the **vertical component of the bundle's velocity** at the moment of release is **0 m/s**.

Thus:
- **Initial vertical velocity = 0 m/s**.

### Related Questions:
1. How does the horizontal component of the bundle's velocity change during the fall?
2. What is the final vertical velocity of the bundle just before hitting the ground?
3. How long does it take for the bundle to reach the ground from a given height?
4. How can we calculate the range where the bundle lands relative to the release point?
5. What would change if we account for air resistance?

**Tip**: When objects are released from a moving vehicle, they retain the velocity of the vehicle in the horizontal direction initially.

An airplane flying horizontally at a constant speed of 350 km/h over level ground releases a bundle of food supplies. Ignore the effect of the air on the bundle. What is the bundle's initial vertical component of velocity?
