A plane is flying at 324km/h with respect to the air. The wind is blowing at 67km/h [North 30.° East]. The plane wants to fly directly West with respect to the ground. a. What is the plane's speed with respect to the ground? b. If the plane has to travel 2.24x10^3m, how long will it take to complete this trip?
