There is an aircraft flying at an altitude of 490m at a constant speed of 80m / s. when an object is dropped from the aircraft, how many meters is the distance between the object and the aircraft? The answer is 100 But I think the plane and the object are moving the same horizontal distance?

If you don't consider the air resistance, the horizontal displacement of the plane and the object is the same. The vertical distance is the required distance. I can't understand it
