an aircraft is trying to fly due north at a speed of 100 m per sec. it is subjected to a cross wind blowing from west to east at speed of 50 m per sec what is the actual velocity of aircraft relative to surface of earth |

Answer» 111.803 m/sExplanation:In the QUESTION,Speed of flying of Aircraft DUE North, s₁ = 100 m/sSpeed of wind from West to EAST, s₂ = 50 m/sNow,We know that the relative sped of the aircraft w.r.t to Surface of Earth is given by,where,s₃ is the resultant relative speed of the aircraft w.r.t the surface of Earth.Hence, the CORRECT answer is 111.803 m/s. |
