A fighter plane is flying horizontally at a height of 250m from ground with constant velocity of 500m//s . It passes exactly over a cannon which can fire a shell at any time in any direction with a speed of 100m//s . Find the duration of time for which the plane is in danger of being hit by a cannon shell.

The propeller of a small airplane is mounted in the front. The propeller rotates clockwise if seen from behind by the pilot. The plane is flying horizontally and the pilot suddenly turns it to the right. Will the body of the plane have a tendency to get inclined to the horizontal? If yes, does the nose of the plane veer upward or downward? Why?
