The takeoff speed of a military aircraft from an aircraft carrier is approximately 115.0 mi/hr relative to the air. They acquire this speed through a combination of a catapult system present on the aircraft carrier and the aircraft's jet propulsion system. A common strategy is to head the carrier and the plane into the wind. If a plane is taking off from an aircraft carrier which is moving at 44.0 mi/hr into a 18.0 mi/hr headwind, then what speed relative to the deck of the aircraft carrier must it obtain to takeoff?
