Obtain the distance traveled by jet as the observer watches

Reference no: EM13670876

A jet is circling an airport control tower at a distance of 18.0 kilometer. An observer in the tower watches the jet cross in front of the moon. As seen from the tower, the moon subtends an angle of 9.04 x 10^-3 radians. Obtain the distance traveled by the jet as the observer watches the nose of the jet cross from one side of the moon to the other.
