Given: A plane is flying at the height of 5000m above the sea level
At a particular point, it is exactly above a submarine floating 1200m below the sea level
To find: The vertical distance between them.
Solution:
Vertical distance between the plane and the submarine = $5000m - (- 1200)m$
=$ 5000 + 1200$
=$6200$
Therefore, vertical distance is 6200
