From a to b speed is 600+40 = 640
from b to a speed is 600-40 = 560

let t be the number of hours of flight. This would mean it would have traveled a distance of 640 miles and the distance yet to travel is 2400-640t
Time left will be (2400-640t)/640. But if they were to return to a it would fly 640t miles at 560mph which will take (640t/560) hrs

(2400-640t) / 640 = 640t / 560
560(2400 - 640t) = 640t x 640
t = 1.75hrs

Why do surface winds tend to cross the isobars?
scZoUnD [109]
Geostrophic winds blows parallel to the isobars. That is because the Coriolis force and pressure gradient force ( PGF ) are in balance. But near the surface the friction can act to change the direction of the wind and to slow it down. Coriolis force decreases at the surface and PGF stays the same. The difference in terrain conditions affects how much friction is exerted. Hills and forests force the wind to change direction more than flat areas. Answer: Friction reduces the speed so Coriolis is weakened.

A description of both speed and direction
julia-pushkina [17]
Speed most often describes acceleration or a high rate of motion. ... As a verb, it means to “move along quickly,” like how you speed around on your bike. Direction is defined as the path that something takes, the path that must be taken to reach a specific place, the way in which something is starting to develop or the way you are facing
