VELOCITY VECTORS: An airplane takes off from Kahului to Hilo which is 123 miles in the direction 43°S of E. The plane takes off heading in the direction of Hilo at 110 mi/hr. However, a wind is blowing to the North East at 25 mi/hr. a. If the plane does not compensate for the wind, what will be its velocity relative to the ground?
