please answer to my question
Answers
Answer:
Answer is 6200meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Take below sea level distance as 1200=a
Take above sea level distance as 5000= b
a+b = 1200+5000= 6200meters..
Question :
A plane is flying at the height of 5000 m above the sea level. At a particular point, it is exactly above the submarine floating 1200 m below the sea level. What is the Vertical distance between them
Answer :
Let the vertical Distance between plane and submarine be x m.
So, as per the attached diagram
If we will add the distance of plane above sea level, and the distance of submarine will be equal to total vertical distance .
⇒Total Distance = Distance of Submarine + Distance of Plane
⇒ x = 5000 + 1200
⇒ x = 6200
⇒ Total Distance = 6200 m or 6.2 km
Vertical Distance between plane and submarine is 6200 m
