<u>Answer:</u>
The speed of the wind is 8450 miles.
<u>Solution:</u>
Given, An airplane can fly 650 miles per hour in still air.
It can travel 2800 miles with the wind in the same time it can travel 2400 miles against the wind,
We have to find the wind speed.
Let the speed of the wind be s.
Now, we know that, distance travelled = relative speed x time taken.
<u><em>While travelling with wind</em></u>
[s + 650 is relative speed as both are in same direction]
<u><em>While travelling against wind</em></u>
Here, both time taken are equal as given that same time.
Now, equate both equations
4s = 52 x 650 = 13 x 650 = 8450
Hence, the speed of the wind is 8450 miles.
