An aeroplane flies due west for 3 hours from P (lat. 50^\circN, long. 60^\circW) to a point Q at an average speed of 600km/h. The aeroplane then flies due south from Q to a point Y 500km away. Calculate, correct to 3 significant figures, (a) the longitude of Q ; (b) the latitude of Y . [Take the radius of the earth = 6400km and \(\pi = \frac{22}{7}\)].
