Question

The jet transport B is flying north with a velocity $v_B$ = 580 km/h when a smaller aircraft A passes underneath the transport headed in the 64° direction shown. To passengers in B, however, A appears to be flying sideways and moving east. Determine the magnitudes of the actual velocity of A and the velocity which A appears to have relative to B. Answers: $v_A$ = km/h $v_{A/B}$ = km/h

Answers:
$v_A$ =  km/h
$v_{A/B}$ =  km/h

The jet transport B is flying north with a velocity vB = 580 km/h when a smaller aircraft A passes underneath the transport headed in the 64° direction shown. To passengers in B, however, A appears to be flying sideways and moving east. Determine the magnitudes of the actual velocity of A and the velocity which A appears to have relative to B.
Answers:
vA = km/h
vA/B = km/h

The jet transport B is flying north with a velocity v_(B)=580k(m)/(h) when a smaller aircraft A passes underneath the transport headed in the 64deg direction shown. To passengers in B, however, A appears to be flying sideways and moving east. Determine the magnitudes of the actual velocity of A and the velocity which A appears to have relative to B. Answers: v_(A)=,k(m)/(h) v_((A)/(B))=i,k(m)/(h) The jet transport B is flying north with a velocity vg =580 km/h when a smaller aircraft A passes underneath the transport headed in the 64'direction shown. To passengers in B, however,A appears to be flying sideways and moving east.Determine the magnitudes of the actual velocity of A and the velocity which A appears to have relative to B.
