A small airplane is flying due east with a speed of 37.0 m/s with respect to the air. The wind is moving with a speed of 18.0 m/s at an angle of 21.0 degrees north of due west (in other words, the wind is moving in a northwest direction, but more west than north). What is the speed of the airplane with respect to the ground?
