An airplane is flying at 250 m/s due north, relative to air. There is a strong wind of 65 m/s blowing in a due east direction.
Sketch a Vector Diagram showing the velocity of the airplane relative to the air, the velocity of the wind, and the final velocity of the plane relative to the ground. Use it to help you determine the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the plane relative to the ground.
An airplane is flying at 250 m/s due north, relative to air. There is a strong...
Wind is blowing at 15m/s due east relative to earth. If an airplane is flying a velocity of 28m/s northbound realtive to earth. What is the velocity of the airplane realtive to the wind (find magnitude and direction)? (show work)
2D Kinematics Question: A plane is flying 162 m/s west relative to the air. The wind is blowing 23 m/s north relative to the ground. Determine the plane's velocity relative to the ground. Velocity relative to the ground (magnitude)= Velocity relative to the ground direction = degrees W of N
An airplane is flying at a velocity of 61 m/s eastward relative to the air. Due to a high-pressure region to the north, the velocity of the air relative to the ground is 15 m/s southward. Find the ground speed of the airplane.
An airplane flies due north at 220 km/h relative to the air. There is a wind blowing at 60 km/h to the northeast relative to the ground. What are the plane's speed and direction relative to the ground
A plane is headed south at a speed of 115 m/s (speed relative to the air). There is a 25.0-m/s wind speed blowing 32° north of east. What is the ground speed of the plane (magnitude and direction)? Ground speed: m/s Direction: O east of south
You are flying in a light airplane spotting traffic for a radio station. Your flight carries you due east above a highway. Landmarks below tell you that your speed is 47.0 m/s relative to the ground and your air speed indicator also reads 47.0 m/s . However, the nose of your airplane is pointed somewhat south of east and the station's weather person tells you that the wind is blowing with speed 18.0 m/s . 1. In which direction is...
An airplane has a speed of 265 km/h relative to the air. There is a wind blowing at 75 km/h at 30° north of east relative to Earth. In which direction should the plane head to land at an airport due north of its present location? ° west of north What is the plane's speed relative to the ground?
5. According to ground-based radar, an airplane is flying 15 degrees north of west at a speed of 100. mph. The weather report states that the wind is blowing in the southeast direction, i.e., 45 degrees south of east, with a speed of 35 mph. What is the airspeed of the plane? In other words, what is the speed of the plane relative to the air? Give your answer to 2 significant figures.
An airplane maintains a speed of 687 km/h relative to the air it is flying through as it makes a trip to a city 780 km away to the north. (Assume north is the positive y-direction and east is the positive x-direction.) (a) What time interval is required for the trip if the plane flies through a headwind blowing at 36.6 km/h toward the south? ________h (b) What time interval is required if there is a tailwind with the same...
An airplane is flying with a constant altitude at a speed of 475 mph in a direction 25° north of west directly towards its final destination. The airplane then encounters wind blowing at a steady 30 mph in a direction 85° north of east. Yes a. Start by drawing a vector diagram for this situation. Did you draw a diagram? Great! Your diagram might look something like this: Wind New Path Original Path b. If the pilot does not correct...
