A plane leaves an aircraft carrier and flies due north at 500km/hr. The aircraft carrier proceeds 30 degrees west of south at 35 km/h. If the plane has enough fuel for flying 4 hours, what is the maximum distance north it can fly to that the remaining fuel will allow a safe return to the aircraft carrier?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Planes pos vector {0,500t} Aircraft Carrier {35 cos 240 t,35 sin 240 t}
