Question

**Problem Statement:**

An airplane is heading north at an airspeed of 1200 km/hr, but there is a wind blowing from the southwest at 90 km/hr. How many degrees off course will the plane end up flying? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

[Input box for degrees off course] ° east of north

What is the plane's speed relative to the ground? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

[Input box for speed] km/hr

---

This problem explores vector addition in physics, specifically focusing on how wind affects the actual path and speed of an aircraft. The objective is to calculate the deviation in the aircraft's intended course and determine its true groundspeed when subject to crosswinds.
