The answer is friction. As ocean wave approach the shoreline, they are affected by the sea bed through process such as refraction, shoaling, bottom friction and wave-breaking. However wave breaking also occurs in deep water when the waves re too steep. If the waves meet major structurer or abrupt changes in the coastline, they will be transformed by diffraction.

An airplane takes off from a location at 17°S
Lilit [14]

The plane would reach a latitude of 38°N.

When it comes to lines of latitude, the Equator is 0°. Locations south of the equator increase from 0° as you go further South and those north increase from 0° as you go North.

If you therefore go from 17°S northward, the degrees of latitude will keep decreasing till you get to 0° and then start increasing as you go North.

The new location in this case will therefore be North:

= 55 - 17

= 38 °N

In conclusion, the plane will keep going North until it passes the Equator at 0° then it will keep going North till it gets to 38°N.
