Fluency Practice

A plane flies at 300 mph heading due east. A crosswind blows at 50 mph due north. How many vector quantities are described?

0 — neither is a vector

1 — only the plane's velocity is a vector

1 — only the wind is a vector

2 — both the plane's velocity and the wind velocity are vectors
