K. 275. A flying saucer with aliens on board is travelling at a uniform altitude above the ground (that is, at a constant distance from the Earth) at a uniform speed of 800 km/h. At 8 a.m., it was over London, and after 1 hour and 24 minutes it is already over Berlin. Assume that the Earth is a sphere of radius 6370 km. The distance between London and Berlin is 929 km measured along the surface. The saucer travels the shortest path between the two points under the given conditions. Calculate its distance from the surface of the Earth.

Sorry, the solution is published in Hungarian only.

Ha a csészelj a Föld felszínétől h távolságra repül - a feltételek szerint a Londont Berlinnel összekötő főkörívvel koncentrikus és hasonló körív mentén. Ezért 1h24perc, azaz 1,4 óra alatt km-t tesz meg, így a megtett útjára a következő összefüggés igaz: . Átalakítás után h1309,656. A csészealj kb. 1309,656km-re van a Föld felszínétől.
