The wind magnitude

And on another note, i did the step you told me and got 15m/s for the magnitude, does that sound right?

I seriously can't thank you enough. Is there a way I can donate or support this forum? I am loving it here so far

heres my work heres a picture of my work. Can you verify my steps? I am still in grade 10, but I took summer school and night school and I am taking grade 12 physics online atm. It was stressing me out because no one of my classmates is helping until I found this website.

Homework Statement An airplane flies with a velocity of 55.0 m/s [ 35o N of W] with respect to the air (this is known as air speed). If the velocity of the airplane according to an observer on the ground is 40.0 m/s [53o N of W], what was the wind velocity? Homework Equations...
