Answer:

Its resultant velocity will be 320 km/h.

Explanation:

The tail wind is called the wind that brings greater speed to an airplane, because it has the same direction as the airplane and, therefore, contributes a positive force to the force that the airplane's engines print on it.

Thus, a tailwind adds its speed to the speed of the plane, developing a resulting speed higher than that marked on the air transport speedometer.

In the case, given that the speed of the plane is 240 km / h and the tail wind is 80 km / h, the resulting speed will be 320 km / h.

Molodets [167]

Answer:

Explanation:

Use $v^{2} = u^{2} +2as$ to do the question.

For first instance,

$0 = v^{2} +2ax$ -------------------( 1 )

for second instance,

$0 = (2v)^{2} +2as$ -----------------( 2 )

So by (1) and (2),

s = 4x
