A plane flying horizontally at an altitude of 1 mi and a speed of 540 mi/h passes directly over a radar station. Find the rate at which the distance from the plane to the station is increasing when it is 5 mi away from the station. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.) Xmi/h Enhanced Feedback 1/20 Please try again. Keep in mind that distance = V (altitude)2 + (horizontal distance)2 (or y = x + h² ). Differentiate with respect to t on both sides of the equation, using the Chain Rule, to solve for Y. The given speed of the plane is UX. dt dt A plane flying horizontally at an altitude of 1 mi and a speed of 540 mi/h passes directly over a radar station.
