A small aircraft A is about to land with an airspeed of 75 mi/hr. If the aircraft is encountering a steady side wind of speed vw = 13 mi/hr as shown, at what angle a should the pilot direct the aircraft so that the absolute velocity is parallel to the runway? What is the speed at touchdown? Answers: Pilot should choose a = i Speed at touchdown: v= mi/hr i

A sailboat moving in the direction shown is tacking to windward against a north wind. The log registers a hull speed of 5.5 knots. A "telltale" (light string tied to the rigging) indicates that the direction of the apparent wind is 30° from the centerline of the boat. What is the true wind velocity vw? 5.5 knots 410 300 Uw Answer: vw = i knots
A sailboat moving in the direction shown is tacking to windward against a north wind. The log registers a hull speed of 5.9 knots. A “telltale” (light string tied to the rigging) indicates that the direction of the apparent wind is 37° from the centerline of the boat. What is the true wind velocity vw?
A pilot wants to fly to an airport 270 km due north of her position, with a wind coming from the east (going west) with a speed of 35 km/hr. If she flies at an airspeed of 320 km/hr (relative to the wind), how long will it take her to fly to the airport (in minutes)? Hint: what heading should she take?
