Question

Airplanes A and B are flying with constant velocity in the same vertical plane at angles 30 and 60 with respect to the horizontal respectively as shown in the figure. The speed of A is 1003ms1. At time t=0s, an observer in A finds B at a distance of 500m. This observer sees B moving with a constant velocity perpendicular to the line of motion of A. If at t=t0, A just escapes being hit by B, t0 in seconds is:

Solution

The correct option is A 5
The relative velocity of B with respect to A is perpendicular to line of motion of A.
VBcos30=VA
VB=200m/s
And time t0=(Relativedistance)(Relativevelocity)
=500VBsin30=5sec
