Question 729798: An aeroplane takes off from the ground at an angle of 27 degrees and its average speed in the first 10 seconds is 200 km h-1 . What is the altitude of the plane at the end of this time? Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! from the given condition
sin theta = opposite side / hypotenuse
Sin 27 = altitude/ the distance traveled in 10 seconds
200 km/h
200*1000/3600 m /s
=55.56
sin 27 = altitude / 55.56
0.45= altitude/55.56
altitude = 25 meters
