3. An airplane heads due north at 100 m/s through a 30 m/s cross wind blowing from the east to the west. Determine the resultant velocity of the airplane (relative to due north). A mountain climbing expedition establishes a base camp and two intermediate camps, A and B. Camp A is 11,200 m east of and 3,200 m above base camp. Camp B is 8400 m east of and 1700 m higher than Camp A. Determine the displacement between base camp and Camp B. 4.

9 A small plane flies at 294 km/h in still air. If the wind blows directly out of the west at 27.7 km/h, how long does it take her to reach a point 466.1 km directly north of her starting point? Answer upto 2 dp
3. A flock of ducks is trying to migrate south for the winter, but they keep being blown off course by a wind blowing from the west at 14 m/sm/s . A wise elder duck finally realizes that the solution is to fly at an angle to the wind. If the ducks can fly at 15 m/s relative to the air, in what direction should they head in order to move directly south? Please answer in degrees west of south
