SOLUTION: A plane flies with a velacity of 120 mph at a bearing of 115 degree through a 30-mph wind from the east. What is the plane's velocity as measured from the ground? Show you work.
Question 1099544: A plane flies with a velacity of 120 mph at a bearing of 115 degree through a 30-mph wind from the east. What is the plane's velocity as measured from the ground? Show you work. Answer by Fombitz(32388) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! So the plane's velocity broken down into components is,
(,)=(,)
So the wind is coming out of the east so it's components are
(,)
So then adding,
(,)= (,)=(,)
The resultant is then,
