Question

5. A plane is flying at the height of 4850 m above sea level. At a particular point, it is exactly above a submarine
floating 1435 m below the sea level. What is the vertical distance between them.​

Answer 1

Answer:

⇢ ${\boxed{\rm{Vertical \: distance = 6275 \: meters}}}$

Step-by-step-explanation:

Given:-

⇢ A plane is flying at the height of 4850 m above sea level. At a particular point, it is exactly above a submarine floating 1435 m below the sea level.

ㅤ

Find:-

⇢ What is the vertical distance between them.

ㅤ

Concept:-

⇢ A place is flying about sea levels in a height of (4850 meters) as well as below the sea level a submarine is flying below the sea level with (-1435 meters). Here the sea is the mid point level of both plane and submarine as sea shore top point behaves as the number zero in this concept like how zero is the mind point of both negative and postive integers at number line.

ㅤ

Calculations:-

⇢ $\rm{4850 - (-1435)}$

⇢ $\rm{4850 + 1425}$

⇢ ${\boxed{\rm{6275 \: meters}}}$

ㅤ

Therefore, 6275 meters is the vertical distance between them.
