QUESTION 2 KINEMATICS

2.2 Aeroplane X flies over airport A in the East and travels in a straight line to airport B in the West. Airport B
is 1200 km away from airport A, when measured in a straight line. Thirty minutes later, aeroplane Y flies
over airport B and travels in a straight line towards airport A. Aeroplane X flies at a constant velocity of
900 km∙h-1 and aeroplane Y flies at a constant velocity of 950 km∙h-1. Calculate how far from airport, A,
they will be, when they cross paths.
