We have that the speed over the ground of a mosquito flying 2 m/s relative to the air against a 2 m/s headwind is
X=0m/s
From the question we are told that
mosquito flying 2 m/s
against a 2 m/s headwind
Generally
The speed over the ground is the Flight Speed minus resistance speed
Generally the equation for the speed over the ground is mathematically given as
X=Flight Speed-resistance speed
Therefore
X=2-2
X=0m/s
