You are piloting a small airplane in which you want to reach a destination that is 750 km due north of your starting loca- tion. Once you are airborne, you find that (due to a strong but steady wind) to maintain a northerly course you must point the nose of the plane at an angle that is 22 west of true north. From previous flights on this route in the absence of wind, you know that it takes you 3.14 h to make the journey. With the wind blowing, you find that it takes 4.32 h. A fellow pilot calls you to ask about the wind velocity (magnitude and direction). What is your report?
