For this problem, you can think of the jet stream as a river of air. Across the United States, the jet stream usually moves from west to east. We will assume that the jet stream is moving in its usual direction at 9.00 x 101 km/hr. On a particular day, you need to pilot a plane from one city to another that is 4.50 x 102 km directly to the south. The top speed of the aircraft in still air is 285 km/hr. (a) Make a sketch to represent what is happening in this problem. Label all quantities that you know. (b) Using cardinal directions (north, east, south, west) to give a heading, which direction should you aim the plane to reach the city directly to the south at top speed? (c) How fast (in km/hr) would you be moving relative to the ground? (c) How much time (in hr) will it take you to reach your destination?
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. One goose is flying at 100 km/h relative to the air but a 30 km/h wind is blowing from west to east. At what angle relative to the north-south direction should this bird head to travel directly southward relative to the ground? How long will it take the goose to cover a ground distance of 450 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.)
