Correct Answer: 40.8
Correct Answer: 350 metres
Correct Answer: 46.25
Correct Answer: 400 metres
Correct Answer: 105 seconds
Explanation:
Let the plane be at point A at t se
conds and at point B
after t + 30 seconds
Since the motion is uniform, we can say that at time t+15 seconds, the plane is above the point is
diametrically opposite to the point P from where the angle is same.
Now since the time taken to cover the full circ
le is 3 minutes (180
seconds), the time taken by the plane
to reach the diametrically opposite point will be 90 seconds.
So the time after which the plane reaches the point P will be = t+ 15 + 90 seconds = (t + 105 )seconds
