here we find using trigonometric calculations and vectors,
plane : < 650 cos 175.30 , 650 sin 175.30 >
= < -647.81 , 53.26 >
wind : < 25 cos 266.60 , 25 sin 266.60 >
= < -1.48 , -24.95 >
now simply add the vectors of cos and sin,
true velocity of plane : < -649.29 , 28.31 > ------> let be < a , b >
true speed of plane is simply the magnitude of the vectors
=
mph
true direction of plane

A plane flies at a constant groundspeed of 428 miles per hour due east and encounters a 36-mile-per-hour wind from the northwest. Find the airspeed and compass direction that will allow the plane to maintain its groundspeed and eastward direction. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) speed mph direction ° north of east
A pilot wants to fly his plane at an air speed of 135 mph from point A to point B. Point B is 200 miles directly North of point A. Wind with constant speed of 30 mi/h blows from the Northwest to Southeast. What direction should the pilot point his plane in? What is the plane's speed relative to the ground? Hint: draw a vector diagram and add the two vectors together.
2. A plane flies directly north from city A to city B at a resultant speed of 400 mi/hr. The wind blows at 80 mi/hr directly from the west. (a) (5 points) Make a careful sketch showing the direction the plane has to fly to get to city B. (b) (10 points) What must be the speed and direction of the plane relative to the air to arrive at City B? Vx = 80 cos 90.0 Vy=80 sin 90 =...
The magnitude of a velocity vector is called speed.
Suppose that a wind is blowing from the direction N45°W at a speed
of 50 km/h. (This means that the direction from which the wind
blows is 45° west of the northerly direction.) A pilot is steering
a plane in the direction N60°E at an airspeed (speed in still air)
of 100 km/h. The true course, or track, of the
plane is the direction of the resultant of the velocity vectors...
The magnitude of a velocity vector is called speed. Suppose that a wind is blowing from the direction N45°W at a speed of 50 km/h. (This means that the direction from which the wind blows is 45° west of the northerly direction.) A pilot is steering a plane in the direction N60°E at an airspeed (speed in still air) of 150 km/h. The true course, or track, of the plane is the direction of the resultant of the velocity vectors...
1. Suppose that a wind is blowing from the direction N45°W at a speed of 50km/h. A pilo is steering a plane in the direction N60°E at an airspeed (speed in still air) of 250km/h. Find: (5pts) a. The ground speed of the plane (i.e. the magnitude of the resultant of the velocity vectors of the plane and the wind), and The true course of the plane (i.e. the direction of the resultant) b. A box has dimensions 3ft by...
A model airplane competition has the following rules: Each plane must fly to a point 1 km from the start and then back again. The point km winner is the plane with the shortest round-trip time. The contestants are free to launch their planes in any direction, so long as the plane travels exactly 1 km out and then returns. On the day of the race, a steady wind blows from the north at 8.5 m/s. Your plane can maintain...
An airplane has a speed of 400 km/h with no wind. The airplane flies 2140 km with the wind. The airplane can only fly 1860 km against the wind in the same time. If w equals the speed of the wind, which equation would be used to find w?a) 2140/(w+400) = 1860/(w-400)b. 2140/(400+w) - 1860/(w-400)=2140-1860/wc) 2140/(400+w) = 1860/(400-w)d) 2140/(400+w) - 1860/(400-w) = 6502. What is the average rate of change of f(x)= (x-5)/(x+3) from x=-2 to x =4?a) 24/7b) 8/7C)...
