Explanation of Solution
Given information:
A plane travelled a distance of
Calculation:
As per the given information −
A plane travelled a distance of
Let us suppose tail wind of the plane was
When there is no tail wind:
Time taken by plane to complete the distance
When assist from tail wind:
Time taken by plane to complete the distance
Since with the assist from tail wind plane arrives
