A plane is traveling at a speed of 300m/s at 53 degrees North of West. A strong wind blows out of the West at a speed of 50m/s and causes the plane to drift. What is the drift speed of the plane in the presence of the wind and what direction will it travel?

The wind over the ocean blows straight North with a speed of 10.0 m/s. A sailboat sails straight North with a steady speed of 6.00 m/s, and its sail is perpendicular to the direction of the wind. Suppose the boat deploys a second sail of the same area and drag coefficient perpendicular to the wind above the first sail. What is the new steady speed ? of the boat? Assume quadratic drag for both wind blowing into sails and body...
