Question

A plane is flying at the height of 5000 m above the sea level. At a particular point, it is exactly above a submarine floating 1200 m below the sea level .what is the vertical distance between them ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

6200m

Step-by-step explanation:

in the above question it is given that a plane is flying 5000m above sea level and a submarine is floating 1200m below sea level

so the vertical distance between the plane and the submarine is

5000+1200

=6200m

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between the surface of sea and submarine= -1200 m ( since it is below sea level)

Distance between the sea level and plane= 5000 m

Therefore dist. between the submarine and plane= 5000- (-1200)

= 5000 + 1200

= 6200 m

Hope this helps...
