An aircraft is flying at a constant altitude with velocity magnitude r 1 (relative to the air)
Question:
An aircraft is flying at a constant altitude with velocity magnitude r1 (relative to the air) and angle θ1 (in a two-dimensional coordinate system). The magnitude and direction of the wind are r2 and θ2, respectively. Suppose that the wind angle is uniformly distributed between 10 and 20 degrees and all other parameters are constant. Determine the probability density function of the magnitude of the resultant vector r = [r12 + r22 + r1 r2 (cosθ1 – cosθ2)]0.5.
