An airplane traveling to the northwest is exerting just enough force to overcome wind resistance. It encounters a sudden wind gust which is directed at 30 degrees south of east, which results in a net force in that direction.

During the half-second before the pilot has time to react to the gust, does the airplane speed up, slow down or maintain constant (or very nearly-constant) speed?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> n:

If the plane is traveling at 135degrees, the direction of the wind will be at 330degrees with most of it’s force being exerted in the direction opposite motion. The plane will slow.
