Relative to the earth, the sailboat sails north with speed vo = 6 knots (nautical miles per hour) and then sails east at the same speed. The telltale indicates the direction of the wind relative to the boat. Determine the direction and magnitude of the wind's velocity (in knots) relative to the earth. vo 60° Tell-tale Relative to the earth, the sailboat sails north with speed vo = 6 knots (nautical miles per hour) and then sails east at the same speed.
