An operator at the airport observes on his radar control screen that there is an aeroplane approaching the airport directly from the East. At time t = 0, the aeroplane is at a distance away of d1 = 360 m away from the airport control station and at an angle of θ1 = 400 above the horizontal (See diagram K). He then continues to monitor the plane as it flies through an angular change of Δθ = 1230 towards the West. After this angular change, he sees that the plane is now at a distance of d2 = 790 m away from the control station. SEE ATTACHED DIADRAM What are the components of the aeroplane’s displacement during thiis observation time? WHICH ANSWER IS CORRECT A. (479, 0) m B. None of the other answers C. (-479, 462) m D. (-1 031, 0) m
