Question 593505: if a plane is traveling at 300 miles per hour and is 350 miles from second plane that travels at 400mph how long will it take second plane to catch up please help 5 minutes quiz Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Plane II 400 mph
Plane I = 300 mph
moving in same direction
so subtract the speeds
400-300 = 100 mph
distance = 350 miles
t= d/r
catch up time = 350/100
= 3.5 hours
