2. A jet flying over the Darlington Power Plant experiences electrical problems. The pilot heads due east towards CFB Trenton, the closest airstrip, with a speed of 320 km/h {E}. The wind on this day however, has averaged 120 km/h {S35oE}. If CFB Trenton was 80 km away she should have arrived in 15 min but she didn't.

  1. What is the planes resultant velocity (magnitude + direction)
  2. What is her final position after 15 min?
  3. How far off course from CFB Trenton is she (magnitude + direction)?
  4. How long will the plane take to reach CFB Trenton if she changes course now (all velocities remain same)?

Draw a diagram, if needed or to help explain the solution please.
