Question

Instruments in airplane A indicate that, with respect to the air, the plane is headed 30° north of east with an air speed of 460.00 mi/h. At the same time, radar on ship B indicates that the relative velocity of the plane with respect to the ship is 360.00 mi/h in the direction 33° north of east. Given, the ship is steaming due south at 12 mi/h.

Determine the velocity of the airplane. (Round the final answer to two decimal places.)

The velocity of the airplane is  mi/h at an angle of °.

Determine the wind speed and direction. (Round the final answer to two decimal places.)

The wind speed and direction are  mi/h and an angle of °, respectively.
