i think you might need to draw a grid? a chart of some sort…sorry i cant help with this, as the question isnt really possible without it.

Every 5 kilometres he moves away, the angle will change by 1 degree.. the geologists path is marked x, the volcano thing is labelled y. hopefully u can work it out from here… i am only 13, i havent learnt anything about this stuff yet..

For query two: If pump A fills one million tank in three hours, it fills one million/three tank according to hour. Similarly, pump B fills at one million/five tank according to hour. For one million/two hour, they could fill four/15 tank (one million/6 + one million/10). After the primary one million/two hour, there may be eleven/15 of the tank left to fill. For pump B to fill the rest quantity at its cost of one million/five tank according to hour, it could paintings a further three and a pair of/three hours or three hours and forty mins.
