A plane is flying at a velocity of 529km/h [W23.2◦S](also known as23.2◦Sof W)relative to the air (that is, if the air was still). However,the wind is blowing at 103km/h [W]. a)Draw a labelled vector diagram showing how to add the two velocity vectors. (3 pts)b)Find the velocity of the plane relative to the ground. (4 pts

A plane is capable of flying at a speed of 180 km/h in still air. The pilot takes off from an airfield and heads due north according to the planes compass. After 30 mins of flight time, the pilot notices that, due to the wind the plane has actually traveled 80km at an angle of 5 degrees east of north. What is the wind's velocity vector? Make a diagram, show step by step clearly and the reasoning of each step.

an airplane maintains a speed of 609 km/h relative to the air flying through as it makes a trip to a city 752 km away to the north. a) what time interval is required for the trip if the plane flies through a headwind blowing at 32.7 km/h towards south? b) what time interval is required if there is a tailwind with the same speed? c) what time interval is required if there is a crosswind blowing at 32.7km/h to...

A navigator on a plane knows that the plane's velocity through the air is 250 km/h on a bearing of 237˚ measured clockwise from north. By observing the motion of the plane's shadow across the ground, she finds to her surprise that the plane's ground speed is only 52 km/h, and its direction is along a bearing of 15˚. She realizes that ground velocity is the vector sum of the plane's air velocity and the wind's velocity. What wind velocity...

4. A pilot flying from Honolulu to California flies at an airspeed of 300.0 m/s (“airspeed” = airplane’s speed through the surrounding air) with her airplane pointed 70.0˚ to the east of north. However, the air itself is moving with a 50.0-m/s windspeed blowing due east. When the pilot adds together the two vectors of her airspeed and the windspeed, she gets her groundspeed: the airplane’s actual velocity relative to the ground below. (Even though these are called “speeds” by...

A jet is flying due north relative to the ground. The speed of the jet relative to the ground is 155 m/s. The wind at the jet’s altitude is 40.0 m/s toward the northeast (45.0∘∘ north of east). Suppose that the +x-axis is directed eastward and the +y-axis is directed northward. Find the speed of the jet relative to the air (its airspeed). Find the direction in which the pilot of the jet must point the plane so that it...

A plane that flies with velocity 158 m/s in still air heads due East and encounters a cross wind of 46 m/s South. A course correction is made for the wind so the plane continues due East with speed _________m/s.

A high altitude jet airplane has a velocity relative to the air of 320 m/s due west. At a certain moment, the pilot notices a mountain peak directly west of the plane at a horizontal distance of 4.20 km. 10 s later, the peak is observed to be a horizontal distance 4.18 km away in a direction 17?north of west. (a) Set up a coordinate system and given the components of the displacement vectors between the airplane and the mountain...

An airplane is heading due south at a speed of 688 km/h If a wind begins blowing from the southwest at a speed of 90 km/h (average), calculate: (a) the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the plane relative to the ground, and (b) how far from its intended position will it be after 11.0 min if the pilot takes no corrective action. [Hint: First draw a diagram.] (a) VP,G = 628 km/h (b) Dx = 16.5 km  these are the answers...
