3- I just got a $2500 speeding ticket. If you have taken a road trip in California, then you may have seen the signs by the side of the road that says: "SPEED ENFORCED BY AIRCRAFT". On the day that I got the ticket, California Highway Patrol (CHP) plane was flying 3 miles above the road (the road was straight) at a steady speed of 260 mil/h. The pilot sees my oncoming car and with its radar determines immediately that the line-of-sight distance from plane to my car was 5 miles, and that the line-of-sight distance was decreasing at a rate of 320 mil/h. Determine my car's speed along the road so I know if I should fight the ticket or pay the ticket. "Recall, speed limit in California is 65 millh."
