Technologies 3218

The American concern United Technologies is testing the Sikorsky X2 helicopter, which can fly at a record speed of 464 km/h. How long would it take an F22 Raptor fighter flying at a supersonic speed of 1,856 km/h to catch up with a Sikorsky X2 helicopter if it took off from the exact location 135 minutes later?

Correct answer:

t =  45 min

Step-by-step explanation:


464·(t+135)/60 = 1856·t/60

1392t = 62640


t = 62640/1392 = 45

t = 45
