The constant airspeed of Boeing 747 jumbo jet is
per hour headed due north.
(a)
\Consider the direction north is along the positive
-axis.
Therefore, the velocity of the 737 relative to the air is
.
The velocity of the jet stream
has magnitude
in northeast direction.
Hence the angle between the
and
is
.
Therefore, the velocity
in terms of
and
as
.

.
(b) Find the velocity of the 747 relative to the ground.
\The velocity of the 737 relative to the ground
is
.
Substitute
and
.

.
(c) Find the actual speed and direction of the 747 relative to the ground.
\The velocity relative to the ground id
.
The standard form of the vector is
.
Compare the vector with general form.
\
.
Magnitude of the vector
is

The direction angle is
.
Substitute
.


The angle is
.
Therefore, the direction angle is
.
(a)
and
