Question

I REALLY NEED HELP.....PLEASE SOMEONE!!!

An airplane flies at an altitude of 36,000 km and is traveling at a velocity of 300.0 km/h to the north, but the tailwind is 20.0 km/h. What is the airplane's final velocity? (Remember that velocity is a vector.)

Answer 1

If a plane has a velocity of 300 km/h and a tailwind of 20 km/h, then the vectors of both forces would add (assuming that the tailwind is blowing exactly at the airplanes back) to a total of 320 km/h. Hope it helps
