The tailwind speed would actually add up to the speed of the plane.

It would blow from behind the tail of the plane.

Resultant Velocity = 20 km/h + 150 km/h = 170 km/h

The resultant velocity of the plane is the sum of the velocities of the plane and the wind with the consideration of their directions. The plane heads south and the wind being a tailwind also heads south. Hence, we add their values. That is,
                                 r = 150 km/hr + 20 km/hr
The answer is 170 km/hr.

what causes places near the equator to receive more direct sunlight than the poles? the poles are farther away from the sun than
Andru [333]
This is due to the tilt of the earth on its axis. Although the Sun shines on Earth, because of how the Earth is tilted, the equator is more directly hit compared to places found on the poles. The poles are hit at an angle, therefore the sunlight they receive is lesser than the places at the equator.
