Chapter 7, Problem 106(choose chapter or problem)
A commercial jet is flying from Miami to Seattle. The jet’s velocity with respect to the air is 580 miles per hour, and its bearing is \(332^{\circ}\). The wind, at the altitude of the jet, is blowing from the southwest with a velocity of 60 miles per hour.
(a) Draw a figure that gives a visual representation of the problem.
(b) Write the velocity of the wind as a vector in component form.
(c) Write the velocity of the jet relative to the air as a vector in component form.
(d) What is the speed of the jet with respect to the ground?
(e) What is the true direction of the jet?
