Asst 24 1st question

If an airplane is flying north, from what direction would the wind be blowing to most effectively cause the aircraft to veer toward the east?

• What sort of path would it follow for the first second or so?

answer/question/discussion:

The wind must be coming from the western direction. The wind direction depending on how much of a southern direction from west would determine how much the plane would travel to the east

• If the wind keeps shifting so as to remain perpendicular to the direction of motion what path will the airplane follow?

answer/question/discussion:

If the wind kept shifting to perpendicular of the plane’s flight path, the plane would more or less travel in a circular motion
