Bomber 500 mph
\n" ); document.write( "Fighter 750 mph
\n" ); document.write( "Difference in time= 02:30 150
\n" ); document.write( "Bomber will have covered 1250 miles before Fighter starts
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "catch up distance= 1250 miles
\n" ); document.write( "catch up speed = 750 -500 mph
\n" ); document.write( "catch up speed = 250 mph
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "Catchup time = catchup distance/catch up speed
\n" ); document.write( "catch up time= 1250 / 250
\n" ); document.write( "catch up time= 5 hours
\n" ); document.write( "Bomber would have traveled 500*5 = 2500 miles
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
