During the motion of a locomotive in a circular path of radus R, wind is blowing in the horizontal direction. The trace left by the smoke is shown in Fig. (topview.) Using the figure, determine the velocity `v_("wind")` of the wind if it is known to be constant, and if the velocity `v_(10c)` of the loco-motive is `36 km//h`.
