A pilot needs to fy to a destination 350 km north of his current position in 2.0 hours. An air traffic controller tells him that the wind velocity (as seen on the ground) is 27 km/h [E34 °S]. a) Sketch the overall vectors of the plane to the ground, the plane to the air and the air to the ground. Write the equation for the velocity of the plane relative to the ground with the appropriate subscripts. b) What is the minimum speed that the pilot would need to fly if there was no wind? c) Determine the heading of the plane (in what direction must the pilot fly to compensate for the wind?). Show your work. Label your vectors and label x and y components. d) Determine the speed of the plane with respect to air that the pilot would need to take in order to reach the desired destination on time.
