Question

a plane is flying ata heigt of5,850m.a submarineis floating at a depth of at a depth of 700 m below the sea level exactly below the plane at a particular time.what is the distance between the plane and submarine?

Answer 1

Since, a plane is flying at a height of 5850 m and a submarine is floating at a depth of 700 m below the sea level.

Therefore,

Height of a plane above the sea level = 5850 m

And, the height of submarine below the sea level = 700 m

Now,

When submarine is exactly below the plane, then the total distance between the plane and submarine, = 5850 m +700 m = 6550 m

Hence, distance between the plane and submarine is 6550 m.
