Please help me to solve this:An airplane flying with the wind took 2hours for a 1000 mile flight, and 2 1/2 hours for the return flight. Find the wind velocity and the speed of the airplane in still air.
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "Find the 2 groundspeeds.
\n" ); document.write( "d = r*t
\n" ); document.write( "r = d/t
\n" ); document.write( "The plane's airspeed is the average of the 2.
\n" ); document.write( "---------
\n" ); document.write( "The windspeed is the difference between airspeed and groundspeed.\r
