The distance between aerodromes A and B is 1000 Nautical Miles. At 09:00 an aircraft leaves for B with a speed of 300 Nautical miles per hour. At 09:30 another aircraft leaves for B from A with a speed of 400 Nautical miles per hour. At what approximate time will the second aircraft overtake the first aircraft?
let x=travel time of 2nd aircraft
x+1/2==travel time of 1st aircraft
distance=speed*travel time
300(x+1/2)=400x
300x+150=400x
100x=150
x=1.5
At what approximate time will the second aircraft overtake the first aircraft? 11:00
