1. A tracking radar detects an unknown aircraft flying at a range r as shown in Figure 1. The radar points continually at the aircraft. The aircraft is moving at a speed of 1800 km/hr along the r-direction, and is speeding up at a rate of 50 m/s, on a curved path whose instantaneous centre of curvature is 1 km. Assume that the aircraft is flying in the vertical 1-y plane. Determine: a) the rate r at which the range is increasing: [2 marks b) the rate of turning i of the radar; [3 marks C) the acceleration rate i at which the range is increasing; and, 15 marks d) the rate i at which the turning rate is increasing. 15 marks .1 km yo 4 km le 3 km Figure 1: Tracking radar
