An airplane normally flying 80km/h north encounters a wind from the west of 10km/h at a right angle to its forward motion a crosswind what will it's resultant velocity be?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Resultant velocity of the airplane = 80.62 km/h

Explanation:

Given that,

An airplane normally flying at 80 km/h north encounters a wind from the west of 10km/h at right angle to its forward motion a crosswind.

We need to find the resultant velocity of the airplane. It can be calculated as follows :

[tex]v=\sqrt{80^2+10^2} \\\\v=80.62\ km/h[/tex]

So, the required velocity is 80.62 km/h.
