    If distance d = speed s x time t
    And d = 1960m, s = 600km/h, t =?
    t = d/s
    = 1960/600
    = 3.3

    Time to reach the point B
    T= √2h/g= √2*1960/9.8= 20 sec
    Now distance = velocity *time=( 600*1000/3600) *20
    = 3333m = 3.33km

    Vp-VELOCITY OF PLANE
    Vp=(5/18) X Vp=16.67m/s
    HORIZONTAL:
    u=0,g=9.81m/s2,S=1960m
    S=ut+(1/2 X g X t)
    t=19.98sec
    VERTICAL:
    u=166.67m/s,g=0,t=19.98sec
    S=ut+(1/2 X g X t)
    S=3330m=3.33Km

    It should be 2.33km

    And d = 1960m, s = 600km/h, t =?
    t = d/s
    = 1960/600
    = 3.3
