A commercial jet travels from Miami to Seattle. Thejet's velocity with respect to the air is 580 miles per hour, and its bearing is 332°. The jet encounters a wind with a velocity of 60 miles per hour from the southwest.
(a) Draw a diagram that gives a visual representation of the problem.
(b) Write the velocity of the wind as a vector in component form.
(c) Write the velocity of the jet relative to the air in component form.
(d) What is the speed of the jet with respect to the ground?
(e) What is the true direction of the jet?
