Canada geese migrate essentially along a north-south direction for well over a thousand kilometers in some cases, traveling at speeds up to about 100 km/h. The one goose is flying at 100 km/h relative to the air but a 50 km/h wind is blowing from west to east. 1) At what angle relative to the north-south direction should this bird head to travel directly southward relative to the ground? 2) How long will it take the goose to cover a ground distance of 550 km from north to south? (Note: Even on cloudy nights, many birds can navigate using the earth's magnetic field to fix the north-south direction.)
An airplane pilot wishes to fly directly westward. According to the weather bureau, a wind of 75.0 km/hourkm/hour is blowing southward. The speed of the plane relative to the air (called the "air speed") as measured by instruments aboard the plane is 310 km/hourkm/hour . In which direction should the pilot head? a)What is the speed of the air relative to a person standing on the ground, vA/G? What is the speed of the plane relative to the air, vP/A?
Canada geese migrate essentially along a north-south direction for well over a thousand kilometers in some cases, traveling at speeds up to about 100 km/h.

A commercial jet sets its speed to 525 mph, and points its nose in the direction of 15 degrees west of north (-105 degrees from +x-axis). However, a strong jet stream is blowing at 110 mph at a direction of 20 degrees. The actual resultant velocity of the aircraft is the sum of these two vectors. a. Find the final velocity b. For this airspeed and wind velocity, find the angle west of due north that the nose will need to point in order for the final velocity to be due north.
