A physicist runs straight south at a velocity of 8mi/hr. The wind is at her back (directly from the north, relative to Earth) at a velocity of 20 mi/hr. She decides to change her course so that the wind will strike her right side (i.e. at 90-degrees relative to her motion). By what angle must she change her direction of course?
