Question

A plane flies with a constant speed of (65.0 + A) m/s relative to the air. The plane needs to get to an airport straight south of its current location. When the plane encounters a wind from the west with a wind speed of (24.0 + B) m/s, the pilot makes the necessary corrections to ensure the plane will get to the desired destination. With this correction, what is the new speed of the plane relative to the ground? Calculate the answer in meters per second (m/s) and rounded to three significant figures.

A=78

B= 7
