** CQ_1_22.1_labelMessages.txt **
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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
Slows down because the component of the force of the wind in line with the direction of motion of the plane would cause it to slow down.

• Does it veer a bit to the right, a bit to the left or does it continue traveling along a straight line?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
It will veer a bit to the right.

Not real sure what I did on the first submission of this. I must have had two different assignments open and copied the wrong one. Thanks for pointing it out.
