Using the relation between velocity, distance and time, it is found that:

  • The rate of the plane is of 840 km/h.
  • The rate of the wind is of 210 km/h.

<h3>What is the relation between velocity, distance and time?</h3>

Velocity is <u>distance divided by time</u>, that is:

v = \frac{d}[t}

Flying against the wind, an airplane travels 2520 kilometers in 4 hours, that is:

v - v_w = \frac{2520}{4}

v - v_w = 630

v = 630 + v_w

Flying with the wind, the same plane travels 9450 kilometers in 9 hours, hence:

v + v_w = \frac{9450}{9}

v + v_w = 1050

v = 1050 - v_w

Hence, solving for the wind's speed:

630 + v_w = 1050 - v_w

2v_w = 420

v_w = \frac{420}{2}

v_w = 210

For the plane, we have that:

v = 1050 - 210 = 840.
