262let surface velocity of earth be v kmph
and A be to the East of B
therefore, time taken from A-B = 1000/(500+v)
similarly, time for B-A = 1000/(500-v)
v can easily be found by finding w (ang. vel.) and r=6400km
There are to points A and B on the earth surface at equator separated by 1000km.An aeroplane flying at a constant speed of 500km/h goes from A to B directly and then B to A directly.
How much will it take in each case.

62u talking about the speed wrt to the earth's surface or also want to account for the rotation of earth?

1linear speed of point on earth surface at equator is 1660km/h that means point B is moving faster than plane
