The velocity of the wind will be 50 km per hour.
What is a vector?
The quantity which has magnitude, direction and follows the law of vector addition is called a vector.
A motorcyclist riding North along a straight road at 50 km per hour observes that the wind appeared to have a velocity of 50 km per hour from the direction North 60 degrees West.
Then the velocity of the wind will be
Let x be the speed of the wind. Then we have
x² = 50² + 50² - 2 x 50 x 50 x cos 60°
x² = 2500 + 2500 - 2500
x² = 2500
x = 50 km per hour
