Answer:

60 min

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Rate of descenting= -7m/min
  • Start of descent= 10m above the ground/(+10m)
  • Distance to be covered= 410+10=420m
  • Hence, time needed to reach 420 m below ground level= 420/7

= 60 min

Ans:- It will take 60 minutes to reach 410 min below ground level
