In the event that you are dismissing air resistance and the speed of the plane stays consistent after the bomb is discharged, at that point the bomb's level speed continues as before and it must land specifically under where the plane has moved to when it impacts the ground. 
On the off chance that you incorporate air resistance then the even speed of the bomb is diminished contrasted and that of the plane and the bomb must land at some separation behind the plane. 
Air resistance is for the most part regarded as a constrain corresponding to the square of the speed specifically inverse in bearing to the aggregate speed of the protest ( vector whole of is flat speed and the vertical speed coming about because of the impacts of gravity on the bomb) and the consistent of proportionality is subject to the cross-sectional region typical to that speed.
