A 3000 kg Cessna airplane flying north at an altitude of 1600 m over the jungles of Brazil at 75 m/s collided with a 7000 kg cargo plane flying 35 degrees north of west with a speed of 100 m/s. As measured by a point on the ground directly below the collision, the Cessna wreckage was found 1000 m away at an angle of 25 degrees south of west. The cargo plane broke into two pieces. rescuers located a 4000 kg piece 1800 m away from the same point at an angle of 22 degrees east of north. Where should they look for the other piece? Give a distance and direction from the point directly below the collision.
