Two planes are flying at different heights but in parallel planes at a constant speed. The speed of passenger aircraft A is v₁ = 250 m/s and the speed of fighter aircraft B is VB = 400 m/s. If the radius of the O-centered circular path around which the fighter aircraft rotates is 10000 meters and 0 = 30°, calculate the speed and acceleration of the fighter aircraft relative to the passenger aircraft.

Question
Two planes are flying at different heights but in parallel planes at a constant speed.
The speed of passenger aircraft A is v₁ = 250 m/s and the speed of fighter aircraft
B is VB = 400 m/s. If the radius of the O-centered circular path around which the
fighter aircraft rotates is 10000 meters and 0 = 30°, calculate the speed and
acceleration of the fighter aircraft relative to the passenger aircraft.
