    While the wind is blowing due East at 87 km/hr relative to the ground, a jet travels due North at 562 km/hr relative to the wind (the air). Obviously, the wind will push the jet eastward and throw the jet off course. What is the velocity of the jet relative to the ground? Before you do any calculations, make sure that you draw a diagram that shows reference frames S and S', Also, make sure that you label the velocities...
