Question

A plane is flying at the height of 1000m above the sea level. At particular point, it is exactly above the submarine floating around 1100m below.what is vertical distance between them?​

Answer 1

Answer:

A)2100m

B)1100m

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Given,

Altitude of plane= 1000m

Depth at which submarine is situated= 1100m

Therefore, vertical distance between them would be 2100m.

B) Given,

Altitude of plane= 1000m

Distance between plane and submarine= 1100m

Therefore, vertical distance would be 1100m at that point.

Please note: The question does not specify whether the submarine is below sea level or below the plane.

If below sea level, answer is Explanation A.

If below the plane, answer is Explanation B.
