1. A pilot sets a course for a town that is 30° north of east of his present position and sets his velocity at 100 knots. On take-off, he encounters a cross wind of 20 knots blowing in from 40° east of south. What will be his resultant velocity and how far off course is he? (find angle of inclination of resultant and subtract from original course)
A pilot points his plane due north and flies at a speed with respect to air given by vpa=475 km/hr. A wind is blowing at vag=58 km/hr with respect to the ground at an angle of 50º south of east. What is the speed of the plane with respect to the ground? A pilot points his plane due north and flies at a speed with respect to air given by Vpa=475 km/hr.

An airplane pilot sets a compass course due west and maintains an airspeed of 215 km/h . After flying for a time of 0.480 h , she finds herself over a town a distance 124 km west and a distance 11.0 km south of her starting point. 1.Find the magnitude of the wind velocity. 2.Find the direction of the wind velocity. Express your answer as an angle measured south of west

3.71An airplane pilot sets a compass course due west and maintains an airspeed of 220 km/h. After flying for 0.500 h, she finds herself over a town 120 km west and 20 km south of her starting point. (a) Find the wind velocity (magnitude and direction) (b) If the wind velocity is 40 km/h due south, in what direction should the pilot set her course to travel due west? Use the same airspeed of 220 km/h.
