Tides are influenced by the force of gravity exerted by the earth, moon and the sun. The sun has a larger mass than the moon and as such has a greater gravitational pull on the earth. the moon however has greater influence over the tides because they are caused by the difference in gravity fields. This means that the moon is the dominant influence due to the fact that the fractional difference in its force across the earth is greater than that seen from the sun.
First let us assign variables,
d = distance travelled
t = time it took
v = velocity of the commercial airline
In linear physics, the equation for velocity is given as:
v = d / t
Rewriting for d:
d = v t
We know that the distance to and from south America are equal
therefore:
d1 (going) = d2 (return)
Let us say that velocity of air is v3. Since going to South
America, the wind is against the direction of the plane and the return trip is
the opposite, therefore:
(v1 - v3) t1 = (v1 + v3) t2
(v1 – v3) 4 = (v1 + v3) 3.53
4 v1 – 4 v3 = 3.53 v1 + 3.53 v3
0.47 v1 = 7.53 v3
v1 = 16.02 v3
Since we also know that:
(v1 - v3) t1 = 784
(16.02 v3 – v3) * 4 = 784
60.085 v3 = 784
v3 = 13.05 mph
Therefore the speed of the plane in still air, v1 is:
v1 = 16.02 * 13.05
<span>v1 = 209.03 mph (ANSWER)</span>
