It is Superbowl weekend!!! Capt. Balloon is scheduled to fly the Goodyear blimp from the airport to the stadium which is 21.4 km (E24N) from the airport. There is a wind blowing at 6.3 km/h in the direction of [W225). The blimp is able to travel at 4.8 m/s in still air. a. How long (in hours) will it take the captain to fly from the airport to the stadium? b. What direction should the captain point the blimp while travelling towards the stadium?
