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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
I think that the wind would be blowing in the direction of north eastern. I think that the plane will veer ever so slightly to the right as the wind is blowing in that direction. I will not as much to begin with, but as the wind keeps on blowing the plane will veer even more to the right.

• 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 keeps shifting to where it is blowing at the plane, perpendicular, then the direction of motion of the path will continue in the northeastern path and veer more and more to the right of where the plane started flying north.
