Another airplane is flying in a jet stream that is blowingat 45.0 m/s in a direction 20º south of east. Its direction of motion relative to the Earth is 45.0ºsouth of west, while its direction of travel relative to the air is5.00º south of west. What is the airplane’s speed relative tothe air mass? (b) What is the airplane’s speed relative to theEarth?

A: Explanation:

Relative Velocity

It is a measurement of an object with regards to the other object which is moving or stable or stationary. For example, if we are traveling in a bus and the bus is moving at speed of 50km/hr, then our speed is according to the nearby passenger on the bus is zero. According to them, we are not moving. But if one person standing on the ground or road observes us from outside of the bus, according to him we are moving at a speed of 50km/hr and the bus is also moving at a speed of 50km/hr. Now, the motion is recognized by the observer, it depends on a frame of reference or observer. This is motion called relative motion.
